S 3190 United States Senate · 118th Congress

Training and Nutrition Stability Act of 2023

This bill amends the Food and Nutrition Act to exclude specific income from eligibility calculations for nutrition programs like SNAP. It excludes earnings from certain employment and training programs, including veteran education benefits (Post-9/11 Veterans Act, Colmery Act), workforce training under WIOA, vocational rehabilitation, and refugee employment programs. Households receiving income from these designated programs will no longer have those amounts counted toward their household income limit for nutrition assistance. The change directly affects low-income households participating in federal nutrition programs who also engage in these approved training or employment initiatives. The amendment clarifies existing law without creating new benefits or altering program funding.
