Close the SNAP broad-based categorical eligibility loophole

Not started

“Reform broad-based categorical eligibility. Federal law permits states to enroll individuals in food stamps if they receive a benefit from another program, such as the Temporary Assistance for Needy Families (TANF) program. … The Trump Administration proposed to close the loophole with a rule to “increase program integrity and reduce fraud, waste, and abuse.” The regulation was not finalized before the end of the Trump Administration.”
