'Biggest Betrayal': San Antonio Food Bank CEO Weighs in on Potential Impacts of 'Big Beautiful Bill' that Would Drastically Cut SNAP Funding
- The Senate passed the nearly 900-page One Big Beautiful Bill on Tuesday, a budget package affecting healthcare, nutrition assistance, and taxes nationwide.
- The bill followed more than 24 hours of weekend negotiations and debate, passing 51-50 with Vice President JD Vance casting the tie-breaking vote amid pushback.
- It includes over $3 trillion in mostly high-income tax cuts, cuts exceeding $180 billion from SNAP, and $1 trillion in Medicaid reductions raising concern over coverage losses.
- The Congressional Budget Office projects over 11 million Americans losing health coverage and about 3 million losing food benefits, with SNAP rolls declining by 3.2 million monthly under stricter rules.
- Critics warn the bill will strain vulnerable populations and rural hospitals, while supporters argue it ensures fiscal responsibility and economic growth, with Virginia’s Governor Youngkin standing firm.
