AGP Executive Report
Last update: 3 hours agoSNAP Update for USVI: Starting Oct. 1, SNAP maximums rise with inflation—up to $306 for a single person and $1,023 for a family of four in most places, with higher caps for Alaska, Hawaii, Guam and the U.S. Virgin Islands—while major future changes tied to the Trump-era SNAP overhaul shift more administrative costs to states (75% vs. 50%) and tighten eligibility through new work requirements. Noncitizen Voting Ruling: A federal judge in Miami dismissed a case against Jamaican national Chelsea Cox, saying Congress can’t criminalize noncitizen voting in federal elections because voter qualifications are set by states; the decision applies to her case but signals a major setback for the administration’s crackdown. Local Representation Push: On ABC’s “The View,” Sunny Hostin argued D.C., Puerto Rico and the U.S. Virgin Islands should get full congressional representation to boost oversight. Third Wall Street Plan: Gov. Albert Bryan Jr. says USVI will set up an entity in Christiansted to issue municipal bonds and build a “financial center” as part of the Third Wall Street project. Sports: In Concacaf Nations League action, Saint Martin beat USVI 5-0 in Christiansted, while USVI later topped the Bahamas 3-1 in Group C.
