SNAP workers would get federal pay rates, improving service for families.
This bill would make sure people who help run the food assistance program (SNAP) in states get paid at least as much as federal employees. It would also have the federal government pay 100% of these state workers' salaries and training costs. This aims to improve staffing and service for families who rely on SNAP benefits.
Today, the federal government generally pays 50 percent of the administrative costs for the Supplemental Nutrition Assistance Program (SNAP), and states set their own worker wages. If this bill becomes law, the federal government would pay 100 percent of state SNAP administrative personnel costs, and these state workers would be paid at least federal employee rates, with annual updates.
