AI-generated summary, report an errorThis bill would change the Food and Nutrition Act of 2008 to add three groups to the list of people exempt from SNAP (food stamp) work requirements. The groups are homeless individuals, veterans, and people age 24 or younger who were in state foster care when they turned 18 (or a higher age set by the state). The bill describes these as exemptions that are being reinstated.
