Bill > LB1381

This bill amends Nebraska's existing law regarding the federal Supplemental Nutrition Assistance Program (SNAP). The key provisions of the bill include: (1) prohibiting the state from seeking waivers or exemptions from SNAP work requirements, (2) requiring the state to assign SNAP recipients aged 16-59 to employment and training programs, with some exceptions, and (3) eliminating the state's option to provide an exemption from SNAP work requirements. The bill also includes other technical and administrative changes related to SNAP eligibility and implementation. The bill is set to become operative on January 1, 2025, and repeals the original section of state law that it amends.
