The Trump administration has proposed new SNAP eligibility rules that could eliminate food assistance for approximately 6.3 million Americans by 2029. The proposal would end a policy allowing states to extend benefits to households receiving other public assistance, even if their income or assets exceed federal SNAP limits. The USDA says the changes would save nearly $45 billion in federal spending over five years. The proposal has not yet been finalized.
