FRANKFORT — The Kentucky General Assembly’s Interim Joint Committee on Appropriations and Revenue received some welcome news regarding the state’s Supplemental Nutrition Assistance Program (SNAP) during its August meeting on Wednesday.

The state’s SNAP payment error rate is currently at 3.7% for 2025. That rate is required to remain below 6% for the federal government to continue covering 100% of the SNAP benefits cost going into the 2028 federal fiscal year.
