WASHINGTON, Nov. 12, 2025 – Tonight, the president signed the funding bill passed by Congress, ending the longest government shutdown in U.S. history. Millions of Americans can now breathe a sigh of relief knowing that their Supplemental Nutrition Assistance Program (SNAP) benefits are on the way. FRAC urges the U.S. Department of Agriculture (USDA) and states to quickly deliver benefits and alleviate the harm.
WASHINGTON, Nov. 8, 2025 — The Trump administration has once again shown its disregard for the well-being of children, people with disabilities, veterans, and working class Americans by continuing the long, chaotic, and unnecessary delay in distributing November SNAP benefits to the millions of people who rely on the program to put food on the table.
WASHINGTON, Nov. 6, 2025 – The Food Research & Action Center (FRAC) is outraged. Within hours of a federal judge ordering the Trump administration to fully fund November SNAP benefits, the Department of Justice (DOJ) filed an appeal seeking to overturn not only today’s ruling, but prior court orders from Oct. 31 and Nov. 1 requiring funding of SNAP benefits.
WASHINGTON, Nov. 6, 2025 – “FRAC is thrilled that the Trump administration has been ordered by a federal judge to fully fund November SNAP benefits,” said Crystal FitzSimons, president of the Food Research & Action Center (FRAC).
WASHINGTON, November 5, 2025 — The Food Research & Action Center (FRAC), the leading national anti-hunger advocacy organization, is proud to announce Gina Plata-Nino, J.D., has been named to serve as its Supplemental Nutrition Assistance Program (SNAP) director.
