Don't forget, Republicans are the pro-starvation party.
Every left-leaning person with a legal background that I’ve seen talk about this has said that this is actually better than it sounds because all of the alternatives were worse. This actually tied the hands of the conservative bloc of the SCotUS to handle the case quicker than the alternative.

I see. So if I understand correctly Brown is keeping it out of the supreme Court so that the ruling comes down faster thereby making everything faster even though the stay does really delay SNAP benefits for some time, it leads to a faster ruling at the lower court as opposed to a slow ruling at the supreme Court?
That’s the way I read it too. It’s making its way to the supreme courts eventually, but by ruling the way she did it reduces the ability for the conservative justices to drag their feet before ruling and delaying it much more before sending it back down to the lower court for clarification or a new decision and causing a bigger delay.
