WASHINGTON, D.C. – The Senate Democratic Caucus introduced a bill Tuesday to keep the Supplemental Nutrition Assistance Program (SNAP) funded spearheaded by by New Mexico Senator Ben Ray Luján.

The Keep SNAP and WIC Funded Act of 2025 would direct the USDA to use all available funds to maintain SNAP benefits through the end of the fiscal year.

“Let me be clear: the Trump administration has the authority and the funds to keep SNAP running,” Luján said in a press release. “No child, veteran, grandparent, or hardworking American should go hungry because of partisan politics.”

Luján is the Ranking Member of the Senate Agriculture Committee’s Subcommittee on Food and Nutrition, Specialty Crops, Organics, and Research.

Both Washington senators signed on to the legislation.
