SNAP Standoff Halts Senate Farm Bill Renewal
Democrats on the Senate Agriculture Committee blocked the GOP-led farm bill in a 10–11 vote, underscoring a deep partisan clash over SNAP nutrition aid and stalling reauthorization of the 2018 framework; Boozman recessed the panel after the vote, with Republicans offering a one-year SNAP delay while Democrats demand two years, signaling no clear path forward for the bill during the August recess.
