Keep SNAP and WIC Funded Act of 2025
This bill ensures uninterrupted access to SNAP (food stamps) and WIC benefits during government funding gaps in fiscal year 2026. It authorizes the Treasury to provide emergency funds if Congress fails to pass full-year appropriations for the Department of Agriculture by September 30, 2025, covering all missed benefits retroactively from September 30, 2025. State agencies administering these programs would be reimbursed for costs incurred during the funding lapse. The funding automatically terminates once Congress passes 2026 appropriations or by September 30, 2026.
