John Boozman: “Thank you so much for having this so important hearing.”

Should this legislation be defeated today, current law will remain in effect, and states who poorly administer SNAP programs will begin to pay for the portion of the benefit cost next year.

While this is clearly welcome progress, we need more of our colleagues’ votes to reflect the urgency of supporting farmers, ranchers, forest landowners and rural communities.

This is really not about SNAP recipients, this is about allowing states to continue making error rates that are unimaginable.

Women veterans have made tremendous sacrifices in service to our nation, and they deserve access to the quality care and resources they have earned.
