    SNAP food stamp fraud has nefarious terrorism links, top Agriculture watchdog warns Congress

    The USDA Inspector General warned Congress that SNAP food stamp fraud is linked to individuals associated with terrorist groups, foreign adversaries, and criminal organizations. He highlighted schemes like EBT card skimming and trafficking, which divert benefits to illicit uses such as purchasing drugs and firearms, harming legitimate recipients. House Republicans argue data-sharing gaps allow billions in fraud, while Democrats caution against potential cuts to food assistance.
