This report by The Center on Budget and Policy Priorities tracks real-time SNAP participation data by state following the implementation of the Republican megabill in July 2025. Since the law passed, SNAP enrollment has dropped by more than 3.5 million people nationally — with declines in every state — even as unemployment has remained flat, making clear that reduced need is not the driver. For NC-focused advocates and funders, the tracker offers a live, evidence-based window into how cuts are translating into lost food assistance on the ground.
