Resolves YES if stricter work requirements for SNAP (aka food stamps) or Medicaid are passed into federal law together with or within 2 months of passage into law of an increase or suspension of the US debt ceiling.

Negotiators agreed to some Republican demands for increased work requirements for recipients of food stamps that House Democrats had called a nonstarter.
Looks like Medicaid no, SNAP yes is a potential outcome. I still don't qualify for SNAP, but at least I get to keep my health care...?

I hope not. I already wasn't able to get SNAP because of how few hours my job gives me, and I would very likely lose my health insurance if the Republican plan is passed. I would get insurance again in September, but considering that my ADHD medication would cost $300 per month without insurance, I literally can't afford to wait that long.
