House GOP blasts CBO projection that Biden-McCarthy debt limit deal would actually expand SNAP
Fox News
House Republicans held a late Tuesday night press conference touting their bill before the final vote
The bill would raise the upper age limit of single American adults who must fulfill work requirements to get SNAP from 49 to 54, while providing exemptions for the homeless, veterans and young people aging out of the foster care system. Elizabeth Elkind is a politics reporter for Fox News Digital.
Late on Tuesday, the CBO released an updated score of the bill, The Fiscal Responsibility Act of 2023, which said that the proposed changes would actually expand the net eligibility to SNAP by roughly 78,000 people – or about 0.2%.
