I will keep working across the aisle to reverse harmful cuts to nutrition programs because in the richest country in the world, children, veterans, seniors, and working families should never be left wondering how they will put food on the table.

Costa commits to continue bipartisan efforts to undo cuts to nutrition programs.

Evidence

"After three years of delays, I’m glad the House has finally made substantive progress but there is still more work to do. We must ensure the provisions that support American families, farmers, and producers remain while continuing to improve this bill in the Senate. I will keep working across the aisle to reverse harmful cuts to nutrition programs..." The statement also says Costa secured inclusion of the Dairy Nutrition Incentives Program, which "will help SNAP recipients afford and purchase more nutritious dairy products."

Costa publicly reaffirmed his effort to reverse nutrition-program cuts and cited a concrete farm-bill outcome that preserves or expands nutrition-related support for SNAP recipients, but he framed it as an ongoing Senate fight rather than a completed reversal.

Roll Call 154 for H.R. 7567, the Farm, Food, and National Security Act of 2026, shows the House voted on passage on Apr. 30, 2026, and the status was "Passed" by a vote of 224 yeas to 200 nays.

The House advanced the farm bill that Costa said contains his nutrition-related priorities, but this was only House passage, not final enactment or a reversal of the cuts he opposed.

Assessments

partial same_term A for effort

Costa made a concrete same-term effort tied to the 2026 farm bill: he publicly pushed to reverse nutrition-program cuts, claimed inclusion of the Dairy Nutrition Incentives Program, and the House passed H.R. 7567 with nutrition-related provisions. But the promise was to reverse harmful cuts to nutrition programs, and the evidence shows only House passage and an ongoing Senate fight, not final enactment or completed reversal. This supports partial credit for materially advancing the issue, not full delivery.
