Federal threats to SNAP and WIC programs in Michigan, including the One Big, Beautiful Bill Act (OBBBA) and recent Farm Bill proposals, are exacerbating food insecurity by cutting funding, imposing work requirements, and reducing benefits. Michigan faces a $94 million budget hit, with over 120,000 residents already losing SNAP benefits and rural communities disproportionately impacted by WIC cuts.
