DLHS Hour 1 | New work requirements for SNAP benefits go into effect
Published 2 months, 2 weeks ago
Description
The DL Hughley Show dives into new federal SNAP rules that could push millions off food assistance, sparking national concern. The episode breaks down how recent legislation expanded work requirements to adults ages 18–64 and tightened exemptions—moves expected to remove over 2 million people from the program in coming years. D.L. and the team highlight the irony of lawmakers imposing strict labor rules on low‑income Americans while benefiting from privilege, and they explore how these changes disproportionately impact vulnerable groups like veterans, unhoused people, and older low-income adults.
