There's a lot of talk right now on USDA threatening sudden withholding of SNAP funds for states. What consequences would that have? Hear from our Carolyn Vega on @apnews.com: apnews.com/article/snap...
Text reads: Carolyn Wait Vega, who analyzes SNAP at the advocacy organization Share Our Strength, said losing the federal money in middle of the budget year would be hard for states. “They made all of their plans on the assumption that there would be a 50-50 cost share,” she said. “To have that rug pulled out from under them would be very challenging.”

Some states already are bracing to take on more of the costs. Connecticut recently set aside $500 million to offset potential federal funding cuts to states. It’s up to Gov. Ned Lamont, a Democrat, to decide whether to tap that for SNAP costs.

More and more people are talking about this. There’s still time to change course. Call your senators at (202) 224-3121.
[BIG TEXT] Q: It’s SUNDAY – do you know where your senators are?

[SMALL TEXT] 
A: They are in DC wildly charging towards a vote on an unfinished budget reconciliation bill that includes nearly $200 billion in cuts to SNAP. This unprecedented cut would lead to more hungry kids and families.Text: “As the Senate considers amendments on the floor before sending this bill back to the House, there is still time to make smart investments that will actually improve program integrity, ensure kids are fed and support families so they can contribute to stronger communities for all Americans.”

While the Senate's rolled out their bill text, know that the SNAP cuts in the House reconciliation bill are so unpopular that somehow even the DOGE Ai bot over on the other platform appears to be focusing on the harm it will cause to people
Text: The One Big Beautiful Bill’s SNAP cuts aren’t fiscal responsibility—they’re a $285 billion gut punch to vulnerable Americans while funneling $56 billion to corporate agribusiness. Section 10006 forces states to foot 25% of SNAP admin costs, guaranteeing red states will slash benefits first.

Meanwhile, Title 2001(b)(1) inflates crop insurance subsidies for mega-farms but leaves 73% of actual farmers without coverage. Real reform would cut pharma middlemen, not punish working families.

This bill’s a raw deal wrapped in spin.

This morning, the House of Representatives voted to advance its budget reconciliation bill, which includes roughly $300 billion in cuts to SNAP. The Senate will now take this bill under consideration. 

“A vote for this bill was a vote to increase childhood hunger. The majority in the House is turning their backs on families in need, putting families, including the 14 million kids who receive grocery benefits through SNAP, at greater risk of not having enough nutritious food to eat if this bill becomes law.

“This proposal reflects the largest and most extreme cuts to SNAP in history, increasing red tape and bureaucracy for working families, cutting the value of future benefits and trying to sneak in billions of dollars in cuts by forcing an unprecedented and impossible cost burden onto states. These cuts will do nothing to improve the lives of Americans and will make it even harder for those who do receive benefits to afford enough food to feed their families.

“We will continue to work with the Senate to reject the harmful cuts to SNAP in the House bill, and return to bipartisan negotiations that will actually strengthen and improve nutrition security for kids and families.”

The $230 billion cut to SNAP that Congress is considering isn't just bad policy that would increase hunger for families counting on these benefits to put food on the table, it's also wildly unpopular on both sides of the aisle: publicconsultation.org/uncategorize...

Continuing the breakdown of potential cuts -- at the end of the day, SNAP is good. We need to protect it. Use our tool to write a letter to your legislators: bit.ly/4hInc1f
Header: Eliminating SNAP's Broad-Based Categorical Eligibility (BBCE)

Normal Text: Broad-based categorical eligibility (BBCE) is a practical policy that helps families enroll in SNAP if they’re already eligible for other anti-poverty programs. Kids and families need more access to food, they don't need more red tape.Header: Capping the dollar amount of SNAP benefits for households with six or more members

Normal Text: This unfairly penalizes larger and multigenerational families that fall on hard times, making it harder for more than 150,000 families to feed their children.Write a letter to your member of Congress today! Every voice encourages more voices, and your support can help ensure families are able to put food on the table.

Congress has yet to lay out specifically how it will achieve this and it’s going to take time for them to reach a consensus, but several concerning proposals are floating around. Let’s talk about what they would mean for kids and families and how you can take action.
This is What Could Happen if the U.S. House of Representatives Make Cuts to SNAP  

Subtitle Text: And what you can do about itHeader: Rolling back the current version of the Thrifty Food Plan and restricting future updates

Normal Text: 
The Thrifty Food Plan determines the value of SNAP benefits—outlining the cheapest nutritious diet possible for a family to live on. Rolling it back to the standards before its last update would cut SNAP benefits for a whole lot of people, including 17 million kids, 6 million adults 60 years or older, and 4 million people with disabilities.Header: Adding additional work requirements for SNAP participants

Normal Text: SNAP recipients are already subject to two different sets of work requirements. This isn't actually about work, and access to basic needs like nutritious food should not be contingent on someone’s ability to document their work. Unfortunately, adding more work restrictions won’t make it easier for people to secure employment, they’ll just limit access to SNAP and increase hunger.
