Op Ed: One Year Later: Feeding Texas Reviews the Legacy of the ‘One Big Beautiful Bill Act’
· Texas Border Business
Feeding Texas is reflecting on the impacts of the 'One Big Beautiful Bill Act' (HR 1) as it approaches its first anniversary. Signed into law on July 4, 2025, the act introduced changes to the Supplemental Nutrition Assistance Program (SNAP), leading to a 16% drop in participation, affecting nearly 550,000 individuals, mostly children. Food banks are facing unprecedented demand due to rising living costs. New eligibility and work requirements are making it harder for families to access SNAP benefits. Feeding Texas urges Congress to delay new cost-sharing mandates to protect food access for vulnerable populations.
