Keep SNAP Funded Act of 2025
- economy
What this bill does
- This bill ensures the USDA can continue providing SNAP food assistance benefits without interruption if a full budget isn't passed by the end of fiscal year 2025.
- Low-income households that rely on SNAP food benefits are affected by ensuring their assistance doesn't get cut off during budget negotiations.
- The bill appropriates funds to cover missed SNAP payments since September 30, 2025, and stays in effect until Congress passes a permanent budget.
