According to the Urban Institute, over 22 million families are expected to lose some or all of their SNAP benefits, with over 5 million affected households losing an average of $146 per month. The bill also introduces a new requirement: States must begin covering 5% to 25% of SNAP costs starting in 2028, depending on their payment error rates.
This cost-sharing model means that states with higher administrative errors will face deeper cuts. A Commonwealth Fund analysis projects that by 2029, some states will see significantly reduced federal SNAP funding, noting that the bill was designed to cut funding disproportionately in certain states.
Based on this analysis, these are the 10 states that are facing the deepest SNAP cuts.
