U.S. Secretary of Agriculture Brooke Rollins said the Trump administration will soon require millions of SNAP recipients to reapply for their benefits, citing an effort to eliminate fraud and abuse from the federal food assistance program.
Rollins told Newsmax that the U.S. Department of Agriculture‘s efforts to collect data on SNAP enrollees from states will allow the agency to “fundamentally rebuild this program.” As part of that mission, the USDA will “have everyone reapply for their benefit” and “make sure that everyone that’s taking a taxpayer-funded benefit through SNAP or food stamps, that they literally are vulnerable, and they can’t survive without it.” Read more at www.thegrio.com.
