There are new work requirements for some people who depend on the Supplemental Nutrition Assistance Program, or SNAP.
Able-bodied individuals ages 18 through 65 without dependents must work or attend a work program, such as SNAP Employment and Training, at least 80 hours per month to receive benefits.
Previously, the top age was 55.
It also requires parents and household members to meet the additional work requirements if a dependent child is age 14 or older.
Previously, those with a child under 18 were exempt from the requirements.
The changes are part of President Trump's "Big Beautiful Bill," which includes 186-billion-dollars in funding cuts to the SNAP program through 2034.
