SNAP Benefits Plummet Under New Work Rules | Orlando News

SNAP rolls back: New USDA data reveals over 5 million fewer Americans on food aid since last year, fueled by the Big Beautiful Bill Act of 2025 — now forcing most adults to log 80 hours/month working, volunteering, or training, or risk losing benefits after just three months every three years. The rules now include older adults up to 64 and parents without kids, while eliminating key exemptions for homeless, veterans, and foster youth. Alaska’s enrollments rose 8%, but Arizona saw a brutal 54% drop — over 400K people lost aid. Expect billions saved over the next decade as the goal shifts from feeding to workforce entry.
