House Agriculture Chairman GT Thompson said he will negotiate with Democrats on a two-year delay to a provision requiring states to share SNAP benefit costs based on payment error rates. Senate Republicans have offered a one-year delay, while Senator Amy Klobuchar wants two years, and Senate Agriculture Chairman Boozman says talks are ongoing to pass a farm bill this year.
Progress on the farm bill and SNAP cost-sharing determines the policy framework for US agriculture and nutrition spending. Stalled talks would leave the current framework in place, with limited immediate price impact.
