Senate Republicans unveiled annual farm legislation this week that would do nothing to address the worsening nationwide hunger crisis spurred by President Donald Trump and the GOP\u2019s unprecedented assault on federal food aid.<\/p>\n

The draft bill introduced Tuesday by Sen. John Boozman (R-AR), the chairman of the Senate Agriculture Committee, omits a Democratic proposal to delay a provision of the 2025 Republican budget law that will require states to pay a share of Supplemental Nutrition Assistance Program (SNAP) benefits for the first time in the program\u2019s history, while also increasing states\u2019 share of administrative costs. State leaders have warned of massive budgetary impacts that could result in even deeper cuts to food aid\u2014and potentially force states to withdraw from the SNAP program entirely<\/p>\n

Ty Jones Cox, vice president for food assistance at the Center on Budget and Policy Priorities (CBPP), said it was \u201cunconscionable\u201d for Republicans to do nothing in the face of large-scale loss of food aid\u2014including among children\u2014and a looming budgetary disaster for states across the country.<\/p>\n

\u201cThe harm unfolding across the country is already far greater than many anticipated, with more than 4 million people losing SNAP through March,\u201d Cox said in a statement Tuesday. \u201cEven more people will lose the vital food assistance they need to afford groceries unless Congress immediately delays HR 1\u2019s unprecedented shift of significant new SNAP costs to states.\u201d<\/p>\n

Without congressional action, the SNAP cost-shifting provision of the Republican budget law will take effect on October 1, 2027. Survey data this month shows that nearly 30% of US state governments believe they could be forced to narrow SNAP eligibility to cope with the new costs, which are expected to average $218 million per state. Eleven percent of states \u201cidentified withdrawing from SNAP as a potential risk,\u201d according to the poll conducted by the American Public Human Services Association.<\/p>\n

It really seems like it should be a bigger deal that 11% of states who responded to this survey identified *withdrawing from SNAP entirely* as a potential risk of the massive cost shift that’s about to hit state budgets thanks to H.R. 1. https:\/\/t.co\/RbsY9LNdLv pic.twitter.com\/TKOQIIK0ci

Crystal FitzSimons, president of the Food Research & Action Center, said Tuesday that the Republican farm bill \u201cignores the needs of tens of millions of people, including families with children, older adults, people with disabilities, and veterans, who are finding it increasingly difficult to put food on the table.\u201d<\/p>\n

\u201cBy shifting program costs to states, expanding time limits, and putting a cap on future benefit adjustments, HR 1 has undermined SNAP, the stability of families, communities, and local economies, and weakened state budgets,\u201d FitzSimons warned. \u201cThe SNAP benefit cost shift to states and increase in states\u2019 administrative costs will force states to make impossible choices: reduce education funding, delay infrastructure investments, cut public health programs, constrain Medicaid spending, raise taxes, or reduce access to SNAP itself.\u201d<\/p>\n

Senate Republicans unveiled their farm legislation amid a growing hunger and affordability crisis that experts say is directly attributable to Trump-GOP policies, from blanket tariffs to the war on Iran to SNAP cuts that the new bill\u2014like the House version\u2014does nothing to reverse.<\/p>\n

Survey data released Tuesday by the No Kid Hungry campaign found that 55% of low-income families with children have had to cut back on groceries recently to make ends meet. The poll also found that 90% of families surveyed reported that they \u201cwould have to cut back significantly on food\u201d if they lost SNAP benefits.<\/p>\n

\u201cRising prices are making it harder for families to afford basic necessities,\u201d George Kelemen, senior vice president of the No Kid Hungry campaign, said in a statement. \u201cThat\u2019s why SNAP\u2019s grocery benefit, which helps feed about 40 million Americans including nearly 16 million children, is a vital support for helping them put food on the table.\u201d<\/p>\n

\u201cThis SNAP crisis is too dangerous to ignore,\u201d Kelemen added. \u201cReasonable steps must be included in this farm bill to delay the cost-sharing until states have the time they need to implement all the complex changes handed to them.\u201d<\/p>\n
