Let’s Get to Work Act of 2025

What this bill does

AI plain-language summary

This bill changes work requirements for people who get food stamps (SNAP) and government housing assistance. It raises the age limit for work requirements from 55 to 60 years old, meaning more people would need to work or do job training to get benefits. The bill also changes rules for parents - currently parents with children under 18 don't have work requirements, but this would change it to only parents with children under 6. People who don't meet work requirements could get food stamps for up to 6 months instead of the current 3 months over a three-year period. The bill also adds the same work requirements to people living in public housing and those using housing vouchers.
