Let’s Get to Work Act of 2025

Summary

Applies SNAP work‑requirement rules and updated exemptions to residents of public housing and recipients of tenant‑based rental assistance, and changes who counts as exempt under SNAP work requirements. It separately recognizes people over age 60, explicitly covers children under 6 in the exemption list, creates a new spouse/caregiver exemption tied to a spouse’s compliance, and adjusts a timing reference used in an administrative cost‑sharing/quality control provision.

• Applies SNAP work‑requirement rules to public housing residents and tenant‑based rental assistance recipients unless exempt.
• Creates a new spouse/caregiver exemption for people responsible for a dependent who live with a spouse in compliance with SNAP work rules.
• Makes "over 60 years of age" a separate, explicit exemption clause in the SNAP work‑requirement exceptions.
• Explicitly expands the child exemption language to include children under 6 years of age.
• Revises statutory cross‑references and lettering within the SNAP exemption section and updates a timing reference from 3 months to "3‑ or 6‑month, as applicable."
• Does not provide new funding for implementation; administrative burdens fall to housing agencies and program administrators.
• Could lead to increased paperwork, verification, and potential loss of benefits for some low‑income households.
• Creates a direct legal link between SNAP eligibility rules and federal housing assistance eligibility rules.
