Colleen Heflin on SNAP and Reauthorization of the Farm Bill

The federal Farm Bill expired at the end of September 2024 and was not reauthorized. Funding for the Supplemental Nutrition Assistance Program (SNAP) has been extended through a Continuing Resolution, but that is a stopgap measure. For this episode, Dr. Colleen Heflin joins us to discuss the recent policy brief that she co-authored with Camille Barbin, titled, “How Does the Reauthorization of the Farm Bill Impact SNAP?”
