Evers Challenges SNAP Rule Change | Milwaukee News

Governor Tony Evers is sounding the alarm over a new federal SNAP rule set to launch November 4, requiring stores to stock seven staple items across four food categories — up from just three — arguing it could crush small businesses and hurt access to food in underserved communities. While the administration says it’s about healthier choices, Evers warns it risks store closures, especially among the 70% of SNAP retailers that are small shops, potentially leaving families with fewer options. This latest move adds to his ongoing pushback against Trump-era food assistance changes, as he urges the federal government to rethink the rule to protect affordability and accessibility for all.
