A bill for an act relating to the supplemental nutrition assistance program, the medical assistance program, and other public assistance programs under the purview of the department of health and human services.

This bill requests federal waivers to modify Iowa's administration of the Supplemental Nutrition Assistance Program (SNAP). It aims to exclude certain youth's earned income from household calculations (for those under 22 in school living with a parent/guardian), simplify income verification using federal databases, allow unused benefits to be removed after 90 days, and adjust error rate reporting methods. These changes would directly affect SNAP participants, particularly low-income families and students, by potentially increasing access and reducing administrative burdens. The waivers require approval from the U.S. Department of Agriculture before implementation.
