house 02/24/2025 - 119th Congress
We're aiming to standardize work requirements for able-bodied adults using the Supplemental Nutrition Assistance Program (SNAP) to encourage employment, while still providing necessary exemptions for those who are unable to work, caring for young children, or experiencing high local unemployment. This legislation seeks to balance support and opportunity for self-sufficiency.
