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.

This resolution asks Kentucky's state legislature to formally urge the U.S. Congress to restore a rule that had exempted veterans from certain work requirements under the federal food assistance program known as SNAP. Under those work requirements, able-bodied adults without dependents can face time limits on their SNAP benefits, and this resolution calls on Congress to make sure veterans are not subject to those limits. It does not create a new state law but expresses the Kentucky legislature's official position to federal lawmakers. Who it may affect: veterans in Kentucky who receive or may seek SNAP food assistance benefits.
