This legislation would tackle grossly mismanaged SNAP by closing loopholes, expanding work requirements for able-bodied adults, enforcing federal accountability, and giving states more responsibility for program management.\n\n\u201cFor decades, the federal government has grossly mismanaged SNAP, loosening eligibility requirements, allowing more recipients to be totally exempt from work requirements, and overseeing massive fraud and abuse. This has created a culture of dependency instead of opportunity. That\u2019s why our office is introducing the SNAP Reform and Upward Mobility Act, a plan to tackle these problems by closing loopholes, expanding work requirements for able-bodied adults, enforcing federal accountability, and giving states more responsibility for program management. I\u2019m grateful to work with Senator Lee to bring much-needed reform to SNAP. It\u2019s time to return to commonsense policies that promote our American values of hard work and individual responsibility,\u201d said Congressman Brecheen.\n\nDaily Caller wrote an exclusive story on the bill, which you can read here.\n\nRead the full bill text here.\n\nOriginal Cosponsors include Representatives Glenn Grothman (R-WI) and Mike Kennedy (R-UT).\n\nPress Inquiries: darren.dershem@mail.house.gov\n\n###", 1, "2026-04-07T14:30:38Z", "2026-04-07T14:34:31Z"]], "columns": ["url", "title", "date", "year", "month", "party", "chamber", "state", "member_name", "bioguide_id", "domain", "scraper", "source", "date_source", "text", "has_text", "collected_at", "updated_at"], "primary_keys": ["url"], "primary_key_values": ["https://brecheen.house.gov/news/documentsingle.aspx?DocumentID=1424"], "units": {}, "query_ms": 0.8741789497435093, "source": "dwillis/congress-press", "source_url": "https://github.com/dwillis/congress-press", "license": "MIT", "license_url": "https://github.com/dwillis/congress-press/blob/main/LICENSE"}
