What this bill does

AI plain-language summary

This bill creates work requirements for adults ages 19 to 59 who receive Medicaid health insurance from the government. These adults must work at least 80 hours per month, participate in work programs, do community service, or combine these activities to reach 80 hours monthly to keep their Medicaid coverage. The bill excludes people with disabilities, those caring for children under age 6, and students enrolled at least half-time. The bill also expands work requirements for SNAP food assistance to include more people, such as those ages 56 to 60 and people with children ages 6 and older, and prevents states from waiving these requirements in areas with high unemployment.
