HCR 9
A CONCURRENT RESOLUTION urging the United States Congress to reinstate the able-bodied adults without dependents time limits exemption for veterans under the Supplemental Nutrition Assistance Program.
In Plain Language
This resolution asks Congress to let veterans get food assistance benefits without having to meet work requirements that normally apply to able-bodied adults without dependents. Right now, veterans who don't have dependents have to work or participate in work programs to keep their food assistance, but this calls for exempting them from that rule.
Official summary
Urge the United States Congress to reinstate veterans' exempt status from the able-bodied adults without dependents work requirements for Supplemental Nutrition Assistance Program benefits.
