A proposal supported by GOP, which would shift some of the costs for food aid as an oven for the first time.
The Republicans urge the proposal to say goodbye – it counts, like states with high payment errors that cover a higher proportion of the service costs – as part of the broader speech cuts and the tax package. However, this does not mean that some Republicans are concerned about the measure.
“Our big deal are the data to be used, the data to be used for the error rate,” Sen. Dan Sullivan (R-Alaska) told The Hill on Friday. “So this is important to ensure that the data are so precisely and reflective of the year that you judge as possible.”
The figures from the US Agriculture Ministry showed the payment error rate of Alaska – the factors for overpayment and the outpayment error rates – over 60 percent. Fiscal year 2023. The national average reached 11.68 percent.
Sullivan found that the state has much lower payment error rates before the pandemic and is on the way to improve these numbers, and finds that new figures are expected soon. But he added: “It is higher than our conventional error rate, and as you know, the cost share is partly based on it.”
After Alaska BeaconThe state’s error quota rose after state officials or defamed federal mice had stated in order to continue in the middle of a considerable deficit in applications.
As part of the first plans created by the Senate Agriculture Committee, the Republicans tried to cover some of the costs for the benefits for the supplemental Nutrition Assistance Program (SNAP) if a. Payment error rate over 6 percent from the 2028 financial year.
States with high payment errors are also proposed that cover a higher proportion of the service costs. If the error rate is 6 percent or high, the states would be subjects of a shift that increases their share of allocations to a range of Betseen 5 percent and 15 percent.
The Senate representative
A publication of the Agricultural Committee states that the updated plan would have to choose from the states to choose the payment of the payment of the payment of the payment in 2025 or 2026 to “calculate their state match performance that asks in the fiscal YARR 2028”.
For the following financial year, the “state match using the payment error rate from three financial years is calculated before”. “
Asked for further potential changes to the plan, Agriculture Chairman Sen. John Boozman (R-Mark) said that the negotiators “processed reviews to try to get a situation that worked for as many people as we can and I think we have achieved it.”
“Alaska is a unique, unique situation, so I know that everyone is trying to work hard to calculate fit,” said Boozman Friiday afternoon. “So I have changes and I am sure you know you know [Senate Majority Leader John] Tune [(R-S.D.)] I will grab myself when that comes about. “
Senator Lisa Murkowski (R-Ala.) Also commented on the proposal and informed the reporters on Friday that she had expressed her with others in the party. To politico.
Shortly after the party’s Snap proposal, Murkowski to The Hill said: “We are still in difficulties in Snap.”
“The impossible impossible for us,” she said.
The Republicans say that the states’ cost share would have increased the states to improve their mistakes. But Sullivan and Murkowski are on the only republicns that have expressed concerns about the effects on the comments.
The house plan originally asked all states to cover 5 percent of the costs for allocations in the initial versions and 25 percent.
However, the proposal was re -elected after Concras of other Republicans, including the senses, Concrens. Tommy Tuberville (Ala.) And Jim Justice (W. Va.) About the measure.
When asked whether he meets with Boozman or Thune in this matter, Sullivan also said to The Hill on Friday evening that he “with everyone else”.
“For me, it is simply important to get the data so close to the date on which you judge,” said Sullivan, adding that he would expect Alaska to record a remarkable decline in his achievement in an upcoming report in an upcoming report.
