As one can see, during Obama’s three years in office, on average, over 16 million new people have been enrolled in the SNAP program. In the FactCheck article they state: “We asked the U.S. Department of Agriculture’s Food and Nutrition service for month-by-month figures going back to January 2001.” They do not show or give a link to those figures, however, I found this table on the USDA web site, which has a different set of numbers from the table above.

Using the data from the previous link, the number of people on food stamps at the end of the Bush administration was 31,567,037, while the current number (not including November or December of 2011) is 46,224,722.
