Training and Nutrition Stability Act of 2025
Introduced May 15, 2025 by Sen. Kirsten E. Gillibrand
It's waiting on a committee vote to reach the full chamber. Most bills never leave this stage.
This bill excludes specific employment and training program allowances, earnings, and payments from income when determining eligibility for the Supplemental Nutrition Assistance Program (SNAP). (Under SNAP, a household must have an income below a certain level to qualify for program benefits.) Examples of programs excluded from income include Workforce Innovation and Opportunity Act (WIOA) programs, vocational rehabilitation programs, and refugee employment programs.
This bill also removes the requirement that earnings from on-the-job training be considered earned income for purposes of determining SNAP eligibility.
Summary by the Congressional Research Service.
No floor votes yet — it hasn't reached the floor of either chamber.
