People on SNAP would see more of their payments excluded from income.
This bill would change how certain income is counted for people receiving food assistance through the Supplemental Nutrition Assistance Program (SNAP). It would move up the date when some cost-of-living adjustments are excluded from income. It would also stop counting specific supplementary payments from a Social Security program. This could help more people qualify for SNAP or receive higher benefits.
Today, some cost-of-living adjustments are excluded from SNAP income starting July 1, and specific supplementary payments from a Social Security program are counted. After this bill, those cost-of-living adjustments would be excluded starting January 1, and the specific supplementary payments would no longer be counted as income at all.
