This Federal Register notice established the “National SNAP Information Database,” a new federal data system for the Supplemental Nutrition Assistance Program. It describes categories of records, data uses, and disclosure rules, including “routine uses” allowing data sharing with other agencies. Plaintiffs in Pallek v. Rollins allege that two of these routine uses violate the SNAP statute and federal privacy laws.
