Many adults would no longer need to meet work requirements to get food assistance.
This bill would end a specific work requirement for many able-bodied adults to receive Supplemental Nutrition Assistance Program (SNAP) benefits. About 6.1 million people are currently at risk of losing food assistance if they cannot meet these requirements. If passed, these adults would no longer need to prove they are working or in training to get help buying groceries.
Today, many able-bodied adults without dependents must meet specific work or training requirements to receive Supplemental Nutrition Assistance Program (SNAP) benefits. If this bill becomes law, these adults would no longer have to meet those requirements to get help buying groceries. This would simplify access to food assistance for millions of Americans.
