Ensuring Food Assistance (SNAP) Eligibility for Striking Workers and Families.

This bill changes federal law regarding the Supplemental Nutrition Assistance Program (SNAP). If enacted, workers and their households will no longer lose eligibility for food benefits solely because they are participating in a labor strike. This provides a crucial food security net during periods of labor disputes.
Key points
Striking workers and their households will remain eligible for federal food assistance (SNAP benefits).
Removes the current legal provision that automatically disqualifies individuals who are on strike from receiving food aid.
