McCarthy demands work requirements on ‘all the programs’ including Social Security, Medicare, Medicaid, and SNAP
"Republican Speaker of the House Kevin McCarthy is under fire after announcing Tuesday he is demanding work requirements for "all" social safety net programs as part of his debt ceiling "negotiations" with President Joe Biden.
For decades, study after study show that work requirements are not effective for many reasons, including many people on programs such as Medicaid are not physically able to work, while Americans using other programs, like SNAP, often called food stamps, are not able to work for lack of child or elder care. And many Americans accessing social safety net programs are working already.
Speaker McCarthy, without evidence, baselessly disagrees."
