Summary

The bill changes the Food and Nutrition Act to simplify SNAP access for elderly and disabled households. It adds a 36‑month certification option for households with no earned income and creates a state‑set standard medical expense deduction for those who self‑report costs above $35 a month. It also lets states use data‑matching instead of income verification for those households.
