While SNAP’s administrative costs are split between the states and the federal government, Washington covers the full cost of the benefits themselves.
And states, which operate the program, have been bracing for the worst. Some are warning that no SNAP benefits will be distributed after Oct. 31, while others say the cuts might happen even sooner.
The funding shortfall is affecting red and blue states across the country — including Texas, Oklahoma, California and New York, where officials had posted warnings that SNAP benefits would be paused in November even before the USDA memo became public.
