It means there must be at least some degree of merit to the governments position on the SNAP issue. Most likely that the separation of powers prohibits a judge from administering a benefits or entitlements program.

That's what most people don't understand about entitlements. It's a counterintuitive name because it causes people to think they are "entitled" to that benefit, that they can't be shut off easily.

Most likely the rules and regulations around SNAP give the executive branch lots of discretion about interrupting or terminating those benefits if funds are.limited for whatever reason.

It would have to be that way. S judge doesn't have the authority or expertise if one months worth of full SNAP benefits should be distributed as quickly as possible and equally or if they should be rationed in some manner.
