The One Big Beautiful Bill Act will significantly cut the SNAP program, limiting its responsiveness during recessions by shifting costs to states and altering work requirements. This will negatively impact unemployed workers and the local economy, hindering SNAP’s ability to function as an automatic stabilizer during economic crises. Many states may reduce or even end their participation in the program. It is suggested to reverse the cuts and new regulations to maintain SNAP’s effectiveness as a vital support during times of recession.
