SNAP changes
For SNAP, the law updates community engagement requirements for certain adults without dependents.
Similar to Medicaid, there are exemptions, including for Alaska Native or American Indian people, pregnant women, people who are medically unable to work, and adults that live with or care for a child under 14.
Alaska may also request a temporary delay in putting these new rules in place if our unemployment rate stays above a certain level and the state can show progress toward meeting the new requirements.
