Bill > S3074

This bill, known as the SNAP BACK Act of 2025 (Supplemental Nutrition Assistance Program Benefits And Compensation for Keep-up Act of 2025), directs the Secretary of Agriculture to provide financial reimbursement to state agencies for expenses related to the Supplemental Nutrition Assistance Program (SNAP, commonly known as food stamps) during periods when federal program funding has temporarily lapsed. Specifically, states will be fully reimbursed for costs associated with continuing to administer the SNAP program during funding gaps, provided that the states have continued to operate the program in full compliance with existing federal laws and regulations. The bill ensures that food assistance can continue for vulnerable populations even if federal appropriations are interrupted, and that states will not bear the financial burden of maintaining these critical nutrition services during periods of federal funding uncertainty.
