Feb. 13, 2025

WASHINGTON, DC -- Today, following the release of the Government Accountability Office report concluding that the U.S. Department of Agriculture (USDA) violated federal budget statutes in its management of the Supplemental Nutrition Assistance Program (SNAP), House Committee on Agriculture Chairman Glenn "GT" Thompson (PA-15) issued the following statement:
"USDA's reckless accounting gimmicks under Secretary Vilsack weren't just bad bookkeeping--they were an abuse of taxpayer resources and a violation of law. Ignoring their own financial experts, Biden's USDA chose political convenience over program integrity and the financial standing of the department, a clear pattern of operation for the prior Administration.
"We will not let this go unchecked--we will ensure accountability and put an end to these partisan budget games."
