If you want to cut down on benefits give people a living wage!!!! It would be easier to check on fraud too..punishing elderly and children is not pro-life.Many are children, elderly, or individuals with disabilities. Approximately 70% of adult SNAP recipients who earn wages work full-time, according to a U.S. Government Accountability Office (GAO) analysis. Other data indicates that over half of working-age, non-disabled SNAP participants worked in a typical month and 86% of SNAP households with a working-age, non-disabled adult had earnings in 2021. These figures highlight that many SNAP participants work, but often in low-wage jobs that do not provide enough income to meet basic needs. High percentage of full-time workers: About 70% of adult wage earners on SNAP work full-time, notes a GAO analysis. High employment rates among participants: Over half of working-age, non-disabled SNAP participants were working in a typical month in 2015. By 2021, 86% of such households had earned income for the year. High work rates among families: When looking at all household members, 89% of SNAP households with children and a non-disabled adult had at least one member who worked in the 25-month period studied. Reason for participation: Many who work still need SNAP benefits because they are not paid a living wage or work in jobs with unstable schedules. Many SNAP recipients work in low-wage jobs with unstable hours, which can lead to periods of joblessness and make it difficult to consistently meet work requirements. looking for a food pantry or free meal, text 211FOOD to 898211 to get a list of places in your area.
