SNAP benefits are likely to be a point of contention as Farm Bill discussions get underway.
Senior Republicans on the budget panel say they have some ideas on how to save money within the program.
“By simply reducing payment errors for SNAP payments, for example, we could save an estimated 100 billion dollars. By implementing a real work requirement for means-tested programs like Congress did back during the Clinton presidency, we could save an incredible amount of money for the American people,” said Senator John Cornyn.
SNAP benefits have been a major sticking point between the two parties. During the pandemic, USDA boosted benefits to the tune of nearly $250 billion. The House-backed Farm Bill from last session would have only allowed inflationary increases for SNAP.
