Preparing for Funding Cuts, Compliance Shifts, and Program Integrity Pressures

House Resolution 1 (H.R.1), known as the “One Big Beautiful Bill,” introduces sweeping changes to the Supplemental Nutrition Assistance Program (SNAP). While the legislation aims to strengthen integrity and accountability, the reality for states is clear: operations, budgets, and compliance processes are about to get much more complex.

Our new SNAP Changes Tip Sheet breaks down the key provisions, timelines, and financial risks your agency must prepare for—along with practical strategies to reduce errors, cut costs, and stay compliant.

Key SNAP Challenges Under H.R.1

  • Reduced federal support: Major funding shifts will place a larger share of costs on states.
  • Payment error penalties: States with higher error rates will face steep new financial risks.
  • Stricter compliance demands: Expanded rules and oversight will add operational pressure.

These changes could amount to billions in added costs nationwide, making it critical for states to take proactive steps now.

How to Get Ahead of H.R.1

State agencies that act early can minimize risk and protect limited budgets by:

  • Smarter eligibility checks: Reduce costly errors with real-time verification.
  • Stronger automation and analytics: Streamline operations and fight fraud more effectively.
  • Better data practices: Strengthen accuracy and stay ahead of HR1 compliance.
