Senator Grassley (R-IA) Warns House to Back Down on SNAP Work Proposals

posted in: Human Needs, Uncategorized | 0

“Grassley also said the farm bill should be finalized soon, they’re just ironing out some final details, but Congress can’t agree on work requirements for food stamp recipients. ‘I can’t be for it because we can never get 60 votes in the United States Senate to get a bill requiring food stamp recipients to work. So until the House backs down, I don’t think we are going to have a 5-year farm bill by early December, then we are going to have to extend the 2014 farm bill for one more year.’”  See “Sen Grassley says farm bill still needs ironing out,” by WOI, 10/24/18.
