US House looks to hike work requirements for food aid

U.S. House lawmakers on Monday laid out a plan to increase work requirements for some recipients of Supplemental Nutrition Assistance Program food aid benefits, and to eventually require states to share more of the cost of the program, according to the farm committee bill text. The House Agriculture Committee proposal would also restrict future increases to SNAP benefits that outpace inflation and would narrow the ability of states to waive work requirements during periods of high unemployment. The proposal advances the committee's efforts to achieve $230 billion in savings, part of the Republican plan to pass a sweeping budget package in line with President Donald Trump's agenda.

In Trump Tax Package, Republicans Target SNAP Food Program

Limiting funding for SNAP could help defray the costs of President Trump's tax plans, but could result in millions of low-income families losing access to aid.

Additionally, the piece discusses the potential impact of these findings on the Supplemental Nutrition Assistance Program (SNAP), as Trump's proposed budget cuts to the program are now under increased scrutiny.
