Benefits Cliff to Result in Decreasing SNAP Benefits Coming to Eligible Beneficiaries in Georgia Instead of Increasing Them

The benefits cliff will result in decreasing SNAP benefits coming to eligible beneficiaries in Georgia if the federal government is not able to eliminate it before it is too late instead of addressing the benefits cliff to increase the benefits, especially for low-income families who are in need.

According to a report published in The Center Square, the benefits cliff will hinder the rising of SNAP benefits and would only reduce them over time despite the expectation that more eligible beneficiaries would expect more benefits as time passes if it wasn’t for the benefits cliff.

With the benefits cliff in SNAP and other benefits, beneficiaries will expect that if their taxes decrease, the amounts of benefits they will receive will decrease as well as the benefits cliff will harm the programs and the people depending on them.
