Some adults on SNAP would have to meet work rules to keep food benefits. States could pause those rules only in counties with unemployment above 10%, and the Agriculture Secretary could still deny the request.
Modern Action explains what the legislation does, helps you choose whether to support, oppose, or ask for changes, and drafts a message tied to the bill, your stance, and the elected officials who can act on it.
America Works Act of 2025 is a House bill committee Action. The latest recorded action: Referred to the Subcommittee on Nutrition and Foreign Agriculture.
Latest action on H.R. 1528: Referred to the Subcommittee on Nutrition and Foreign Agriculture.
Who this affects: This bill mainly affects adults who get SNAP food benefits and may have to meet work rules to keep them. It also affects state SNAP offices, because they would have to check exemptions and prepare waiver requests. Counties with unemployment near or below 10% could see fewer chances to pause the work rules.
Why this matters: This bill matters because food benefits could depend more tightly on work rules in many places. Adults who do not meet an exemption may have to work, look for work, or meet other work-related rules to keep SNAP. States would have less room to pause those rules unless local unemployment is very high. The final effect would depend on job conditions, state requests, and how the U.S. Department of Agriculture handles waivers.
You do not have to start with a blank letter. Modern Action turns the bill, your position, and the relevant congressional context into a message you can edit and send. The goal is to make contacting Congress clear, specific, and useful without forcing you to parse bill text or figure out the right office on your own.
