Summary
Create a new section of KRS Chapter 205 to prohibit the Cabinet for Health and Family Services from taking certain actions regarding the Supplemental Nutrition Assistance Program (SNAP), including increasing the eligibility standards for participation in the program; granting noncash, in-kind, or other benefits to individuals in the program unless individuals are eligible for those benefits under a different program; exempting individuals from the gross income and financial resources standards for benefits; applying for, seeking, accepting, or renewing any waiver of work requirements for able-bodied adults without dependents; amend KRS 205.178 to remove the provisions allowing the cabinet to waive certain requirements within the SNAP program without first obtaining authorization from the General Assembly.
