Keeps SNAP and WIC funded

If enacted, this bill would keep SNAP and WIC benefits paying during any FY2026 Agriculture funding gap. It would appropriate whatever sums are needed until Congress enacts FY2026 Agriculture funding or September 30, 2026. USDA would use the money to pay regular SNAP and WIC benefits during a lapse. It would also reimburse States for program costs during the lapse, but only for costs incurred while States followed Federal law. If enacted, missed SNAP and WIC payments from September 30, 2025 through the date of enactment would be paid. Spending under the bill would later be charged back to the permanent appropriations once Congress passes them.
