One of the provisions in the “One big beautiful Bill”
“The centerpiece is a hard work requirement: able-bodied adults between 18 and 64 without dependent children must now work, participate in job training, or volunteer a minimum of 80 hours per month to keep their SNAP benefits. Miss that threshold, and you’re eligible for benefits just three months out of every three years.
The results have been immediate and dramatic. SNAP enrollment, which sat above 42 million for most of 2025, has shed roughly 4 million recipients since the new rules began phasing in.”

Nice.
Good. Far too many leeches on the system.
