Feeding Families Not Fear Act of 2026
Summary
The Feeding Families Not Fear Act would repeal funding allocated to U.S. Immigration and Customs Enforcement (ICE) and redirect that money to restore cuts made to the Supplemental Nutrition Assistance Program (SNAP).
If enacted, this legislation would shift federal spending priorities from immigration enforcement to food assistance. The bill aims to address what its sponsors view as a harmful trade-off in recent legislation that funded immigration enforcement at the expense of nutrition support for low-income families. The measure has been referred to both the House Judiciary Committee and the House Agriculture Committee for consideration.
