Snap Benefits in Oregon
Many Oregonians rely on SNAP benefits due to economic realities and policy choices made by Oregon leaders.
According to the Center on Budget and Policy Priorities (CBPP), the Supplemental Nutrition Assistance Program (SNAP) helped over 757,000 Oregon residents buy food in 2024, which is about one in six Oregonians.
Oregon ranks third in the percentage of the state's population that relies on the food assistance program, behind New Mexico and Louisiana.
Experts say the number of Oregonians who utilize SNAP reflects both the economic realities and deliberate policy choices that made Oregon a national leader in fighting hunger.
If the Government Shutdown does not end, the 18% of Oregonians who rely on SNAP will lose access to benefits.
