## Resource

SNAP enrollment has plummeted as over 3.5 million Americans lost benefits since last July, driven by new federal work requirements and tighter eligibility rules—despite low unemployment. States face mounting pressure to cut errors, often triggering unintended cuts to aid. Food banks report record demand, while the fallout from these policies threatens to deepen hunger nationwide.
