SNAP Skimming and Its Impact on Low-Income Families
Understanding SNAP Skimming
SNAP skimming refers to fraudulent activities that rob families of their intended grocery funds. Victims of this crime often find their benefits drained prematurely. Without proper protection measures, many low-income families could face an uphill battle in recovering their lost funds.
Consequences of Inaction
If Congress fails to act by September 30, those who depend heavily on SNAP may find themselves without the necessary support to purchase food. The ramifications of losing these benefits are grave, affecting the well-being of thousands.
Next Steps for Congress
Legislators must prioritize laws that protect SNAP users from skimming. Continued inaction could exacerbate food insecurity.
