- Citing a hunger ‘crisis,’ US mayors call for end to federal SNAP cuts
Over 200 U.S. mayors are urging the federal government to reverse cuts to the Supplemental Nutrition Assistance Program (SNAP), which will require states to fund benefits starting in 2027 and impose new eligibility and work requirements. The mayors, representing cities across political and geographic divides, argue the changes exacerbate a food security crisis, with 4 million Americans already losing SNAP benefits.
