[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]People are on SNAP because of their income. I am 100% certain they would take a higher paying job if they had the chance. I wish people would stop seeing poverty as a moral failing. The prosperity gospel BS is not Christian.[/quote]

Only 28% of SNAP households had any earned income at all in 2023.

These people are moochers. [/quote]

25% of Haitian immigrants are on SNAP.
45% of Afghan immigrants are on SNAP.
52% of Senegalese immigrants are on SNAP.

DC is redistributing wealth by stealing from productive Americans to subsidize foreigners and their way of life. That is unacceptable and America Last.[/quote]

Republicans changed the law this summer. Even if those numbers are true (which I don’t believe) they no longer qualify for snap as of October 1[/quote]

Haitian and Cuban migrants are still eligible for some reason[/quote]

You are right.  Republicans carved them out.  They can mooch but not afghan refugees who risked their lives helping American soldiers. [/quote]

Some can still get snap, aca vouchers and other public assistance but only a specific group:

Cuban and Haitian Entrants: Individuals with the specific "Cuban and Haitian entrant" status are a notable exception to many of the benefit cuts. They remain eligible for the Supplemental Nutrition Assistance Program (SNAP), Medicaid, Medicare, the Children's Health Insurance Program (CHIP), and Affordable Care Act (ACA) marketplace premium tax credits, provided they meet other eligibility criteria.

Other Haitian Nationals (e.g., TPS holders, parolees, asylum seekers): Haitian immigrants who hold other statuses, such as Temporary Protected Status (TPS), humanitarian parole (including those under the CHNV processes), or are asylum applicants, are negatively impacted by the law's provisions.

Public Benefits: These individuals are no longer eligible for SNAP (effective July 4, 2025, though state implementation varies) and will lose eligibility for Medicaid and CHIP on October 1, 2026, and ACA subsidies on January 1, 2027.
