The Administration Wants to Cut the Power of SNAP for Hungry Households

USDA’s proposed rule on SNAP Standardization of State Heating and Cooling Standard Utility Allowances would cut program benefits by a total of $4.5 billion over five years. This cut would result from changes in how states take households’ utility costs into account in determining the amount of SNAP benefits for which they qualify. Join the Network and Food Research and Action Center (FRAC) in submitting comments against the proposed rule. Deadline: December 1, 2019.
