This Summer, Honest Arizona is raising awareness of the damaging effects of the Republican Tax Law’s SNAP food assistance cuts on Arizonans. No matter the person, everyone can agree that going to the grocery store is more expensive than ever due to President Trump’s 2025 illegal tariffs and the war in Iran. Americans need all the help they can get at checkout – so recent cuts to Supplemental Nutrition Assistance Program (SNAP) benefits are making already-stretched household budgets even tighter. Here’s what those cuts mean for Arizonans.
-
Since the signing of the Republican Tax Law, 473,793 Arizonans have lost their SNAP benefits, including 205,223 children.
-
Over 205,000 children in Arizona already don’t have SNAP benefits for 2026. Additionally, cuts to SNAP will impact programs like free school meals and summer meal programs.
-
Federal SNAP cuts not only impact low-income families, but also veterans, people experiencing homelessness, and people aging out of foster care.
-
The Republican Tax Law also ended SNAP-Ed, the longstanding education arm of SNAP. SNAP-Ed brought nutrition education to 2 million Americans annually, and another 10 million through community collaborations. Arizona’s SNAP-Ed program, AZ Health Zone, served over 18,000 youth in education activities, led 5,800 nutrition education classes, and established and maintained 61 community gardens in 2024.
