SNAP strengthens local economies. Every $1 in SNAP benefits generates up to $1.80 in economic activity during downturns. When participation declines, that economic activity disappears, hurting grocers, farmers, and communities. Read more: frac.org/blog/a-delib...

Since H.R. 1 was enacted in July 2025, approximately 5.5 million people have lost SNAP. Since January 2025, SNAP participation has declined by approximately 6.3 million people. These are real people losing access to food assistance they rely on.

SNAP supports families at the grocery store, keeps small food retailers in business, and helps farmers sell the food they grow. When SNAP is cut, that entire system starts to fall apart. The recently passed budget Reconciliation Act will rip through every part of it. #SNAPmatters
