Millions of Americans are being kicked off the Supplemental Nutrition Assistance Program (SNAP) amid massive ongoing changes to eligibility and work requirements. President Trump made the largest-ever cuts to SNAP in his 2025 “One Big Beautiful Bill Act.” The H.R. 1 bill funds tax breaks for wealthy families and corporations by slashing $187 billion from SNAP over the next decade.
The Trump administration has outlined new strict work requirements for recipients of Medicaid and SNAP (also known as food stamps). States must adopt the new rules by January 1, 2027. Individuals will have to verify their eligibility every six months to continue receiving benefits. California has already implemented the rules for new applicants to CalFresh, the state’s food assistance program, as of June 1, 2026.
