Vice President JD Vance Claims USDA Found Fraudulent SNAP Benefits Usage
At a campaign event in Iowa, Vice President JD Vance cited figures from the U.S. Department of Agriculture (USDA) indicating that over 186,000 deceased individuals and others receiving double benefits are enrolled in the Supplemental Nutrition Assistance Program (SNAP). While these numbers have not been independently verified by USDA or third-party auditors, there is a documented history of improper payments within SNAP due to administrative challenges.
