## Summary

New York City Mayor Zohran Mamdani said he and President Donald Trump had agreed to give small businesses more time to meet new rules for stores accepting SNAP food benefits. The extension matters because shops that do not comply with the requirements could lose the ability to accept food stamps.

Mamdani said the president agreed to an extension of at least 90 days after discussions involving Agriculture Secretary Brooke Rollins. The regulations, due to take effect last week, set stricter requirements for the produce stores must stock and would affect tens of thousands of grocery shops and bodegas nationwide.
