Your Friday evening update on Salem news
Good evening, Salem, and happy Halloween!
A federal judge ordered the Trump administration to pay out SNAP food benefits Friday – but it’s not yet clear when they’ll actually go out to Oregonians.
We’ve got more on that below as local pantries say they’re seeing a huge surge in visits that’s expected to continue into the weekend and next week.
Meanwhile, a reminder: lots of kids will be out trick-or-treating tonight, and Halloween is the deadliest day of the year for child pedestrians. Please drive slow and keep an eye out for children as you’re out and about.
