State and county officials are urging recipients to do their shopping and make necessary cash withdrawals prior to the outage.
EBT cards, which replaced food stamps under federally supported welfare programs as of June 2004, can be used for purchases at participating stores and also enable recipients to make cash withdrawals.[?]
Locally, the program is administered by the Los Angeles County Department of Social Services.
The services will be down while the state of California transitions from its current EBT vendor to a new one. During the transition, the customer service line listed on each EBT card will not be in operation and the EBT website — http://www.ebt.ca.gov — is down until 11 p.m. Sunday.

Korean-Americans, to your rooftop stations.
Is it wrong to hope they have a few “delays” and “accidentally” ruin the system?
And then need a week to set up a new one?
And another week to send out new cards?
Get your popcorn ready.
Mexico wins the World Cup and EBT goes down...what could possibly go wrong?
I think those cash withdrawals are from welfare payments. Seperately from food stamps. Still.
Well, isn't that special....
LOL, Katie bar the door!
By Monday morning the Californicators will have completely forgotten about DJT allegedly caging chillun’.
