Supplemental Nutrition Assistance Program; providing for broad-based categorical eligibility; specifying income and asset qualifications. Effective date. Emergency.
SB 184 would expand Oklahoma's SNAP eligibility by allowing households already receiving non-cash TANF or state-funded maintenance-of-effort benefits to automatically qualify for SNAP food assistance through "broad-based categorical eligibility." It sets the income limit at 170% of the federal poverty level with no asset restrictions, directly affecting low-income families currently enrolled in these state programs. The bill requires the Department of Human Services to seek federal approval for implementation and takes effect July 1, 2025. This changes existing SNAP eligibility rules without altering federal SNAP program structure.
