Moms are FURIOUS Over Food Stamps Being Cut Off in 2026
SNAP cuts are now in full effect across the United States, and 3.5 million Americans have already fallen off the food stamp rolls since President Trump’s One Big Beautiful Bill Act became law. In this video we break down exactly how much was cut, who lost benefits, and why the new work requirements are kicking millions of people out of the program faster than anyone predicted. The numbers are staggering. The Congressional Budget Office estimates 4 million people will lose benefits when fully implemented. Arizona alone has seen a 47 percent drop in SNAP enrollment, including 200,000 children. Food banks are reporting demand surges as high as 1,800 percent. Independent grocers in low income neighborhoods are facing closure. This is the largest cut to SNAP in the program’s 60 year history, and the consequences are landing right now on families, kids, retailers, and local economies.
1. If the food stamp cuts knocked 200,000 Arizona children off the program, what happens to communities when the rest of the country catches up?
2. How does a 187 billion dollar cut to SNAP shift costs onto food banks, grocery stores, and state budgets at the same time?
3. Why are some food banks seeing demand spike 1,800 percent when SNAP rolls are still rolling off?

It looks like food stamps are paying for nice cars.
The father of those children needs to pay child support or he will go to jail. I hope she has filed for child support. Rent prices are extremely too high. Most places charge more for rent than home owners pay for their mortgage payments. Groceries and beauty products like soap, toilet paper ect. cost way too much. All the prices went extremely high when Biden was in office. If you are not making enough money at your job, try to find a better job. My son is 19 and works for a medical transport company and he makes $22 an hour. That's decent money for his age. Another thought is, please stop having all these kids if you can not afford them. Stop having kids with unfit men. It's 2026 there is so many ways to prevent getting pregnant. I'm disabled and can not work. I wish I could, I'm only 53. However, I worked for 40 years. 40 years walking and standing on my legs. I get foodstamps, not enough, but I'm grateful for the help I get. Good luck to everyone. God bless. Many of these people in these videos make money mak8ng the videos, where is that money at?
Let’s stop funding wars. And we will have enough to take care of all Americans. This is the real issue.
As a senior me and my husband sometimes only have $25 a week for groceries. We cut out almost all pre packaged food we eat meat fresh vegetables and yes a lot of beans and homemade dessert. I cook potluck dinners all the time. Ice tea or fresh lemonade for drinks. I stay out of the middle isles at the grocery store unless I need flour and sugar. Eating real food keeps you full longer and you don’t need over portions to fill full. I buy what’s on sales and only the necessities I stock up on can goods rice noodles when the are on sale and grow a garden during each season so it can be done. Get online and watch videos on easy healthy cheap food recipes.
Total country percentage is 39% U.S citizens and 61% non- citizens.. U.S citizens first for sure ! We truly see all the funds that have been given to non- citizens since the border was open!
IF YOU WORK YOU SHOULD NOTBE GETTING FOOD STAMPS!!!! IT'S CALLED SUPPLEMENTAL FOR A REASON!
Good th I s benefit is not for life get a job you both get jobs so get two jobs . We are tired as t taxpayer paying n get for your food. We don't care!!!!! We are all making sacrifices and pay our bills. Get your partners or fathers of your chi k Dr We need to pay for your children!!!! Only disabled and elderly should l d get aid. Don't have kids if you can't afford them. 37 trillion in debt . The country can't afford it anymore. You don't need luxuries. Only n ecessities!!!!!
The lady saying her and her kids haven't ate in 5 days lies all the time. He is right, she makes money making videos. However, she said she was driving a new Tahoe while on foodstamps etc. She needs to go get a job.
Really 2800 for food are you eating caviar and steak every night
Good question Dad's left a long time ago. Now they're laughing their kids can't eat
daddy smoking after seeding done😅😅
The one time I asked for help it was denied by racist state employees. I guess its yalls turn
Somebody should start a internet chanel putting the names and pictures with cities of the dads of these children live in and get them to step up….would be wild🤣 they really would be passport bro's 🤣🤣🤣
Edwards – you need to have limits when giving away freebies – especially when it's others money you want to give away – or unlimited – sob stories will never stop. I did a thumbs down on this video and wont subscribe
Republicans is the party that wants you to have more kids😂😂
Some of them said they had cable and they need to get rid of that. That’s not a necessity that’s a luxury. You don’t need cable you don’t need Internet. You don’t need a TV. Get rid of all that crap if you have a phone, you can access anything you need
I've had a job since I was 16 years old. I'm now 69 years old and I have never had to rely on welfare.
I’m all for people getting help ,an I am blessed to have multiple jobs ,I do have a question though,,,why is it that heavy people ( can’t say fat / overweight,surplus of calories on bone structure) are the ones complaining? I don’t see anyone who is in a calorie deficit on their bone structure,,you can not put weight on with air ,an I don’t want to hear genetics or health issues,I say go back to sleep ,the math an mathing ,humans need very little food to survive,years ago we ate once a day ,the man hunted all day an came home with his kill after hunting an walking 20 miles ,same thing with our animals,they didn’t eat all day ,they made one kill daily if that ,💪
But you don't like communism, right?
I can feed a family of four for less than $100 a month. These people need my guidance.
Nobody gets $2800 of food stamps!!!
How many of these folks are growing a garden? Raising backyard chickens? Shopping sales? Etc?
The government/taxpayers are not your kids daddy, food pantries and churches give out plenty of free food.
Cable and Internet are luxurys I can't afford, I'm even thinking of getting rid of my phone which costs 57 dollars a month, I eat slop and go without
you are right about being single. There is NO WAY to survive as a single person. You need 2 incomes unless you are a very high earner.
I was a single mom my ex didn’t pay any child support. I work two jobs. I never got help from the government. I wouldn’t even have thought to go and get help. I got through it. We had enough to eat because I used my Tips every day to buy us food. That was quite a few years ago and price was born as high. I probably could’ve gotten help if I would go apply, but I did not.
I guess we’re not quite to the point where everybody has seven roommates? That seems like what’s in the future.
😢
Sorry but the Wealthy need a big fat tax cut. As a matter of fact every time the Republicans are running the show they give the wealthy a tax cut. How many tax cuts do the wealthy really need? A Million?
The government needs to make a federal law of these women keep having kids with no income. They need to get fixed.
