October 1 is the first deadline for states to take on more of the costs for SNAP, so this is an important moment to make a strategic ask to protect those who rely on the Supplemental Nutrition Assistance Program (SNAP).

Specifically, ask Congress to delay implementing the new cost-share requirements for SNAP.

States across the political spectrum are not fully prepared to absorb the changes from H.R. 1 on the current timeline. If they move forward as planned, families—including those with children—will fall through the cracks and not receive the nutrition they need.
