Trump Administration's Budget Plan Causes Concern over SNAP Benefits
- House Republicans passed a tax and spending bill that includes SNAP reforms and cuts, sending it to the Senate for consideration in May 2025.
- The bill aims to tighten work requirements and require states to share SNAP costs, prompting concerns about states’ ability to fund benefits and administration.
- The Congressional Budget Office projects that the bill could cause 3.2 million people to lose SNAP benefits monthly and states to pay about $14 billion annually starting in 2028.
- Senator Amy Klobuchar criticized the House bill, stating that Republicans are removing vital federal support from millions of families, while officials in Kentucky warn the state could incur more than $150 million annually in additional expenses.
- If enacted, the legislation may reduce food assistance access significantly, increase state fiscal burdens, and heighten food insecurity amid already elevated demand across many states.
