The Wisconsin Department of Health Services highlights the impact of President Trump’s Big Beautiful Bill on food benefits. House Republicans narrowly passed the budget reconciliation bill with a set of proposals to cut funding for the Supplemental Nutrition Assistance Program, which provides provides food benefits to low-income families. The bill now goes to the U.S. Senate for consideration. DHS has started to analyze how these cuts would impact all Wisconsinites, including taking food away from families, shifting costs to state taxpayers, and increasing red-tape requirements making it harder to get food assistance. Wisconsin Medicaid Director Bill Hanna says the cuts would cost Wisconsin approximately $314 million every year while putting 90,000 state residents at risk of losing SNAP benefits, which are also known as “FoodShare” in Wisconsin. SNAP assists nearly 700,000 Wisconsinites and can be used at most stores as well as many farmers markets.
