    Comment Request: SNAP E&T Program Performance Measurement, Monitoring and Reporting Requirements
        This is an extension, without change, of a currently approved collection. USDA requires that state agencies report outcome data for the SNAP E&T programs. In order for FNS to monitor the effectiveness of E&T programs state agencies are required to report outcome data on five separate reporting measures.

    Final Rule: SNAP Rescission of Requirements for ABAWDS: Notice of Vacatur
        This final rule removes from the Code of Federal Regulations the final rule published on Dec. 5, 2019, titled “Supplemental Nutrition Assistance Program: Requirements for Able-Bodied Adults Without Dependents.” This action responds to a decision of the U.S. District Court for the District of Columbia that vacated the rule.

    Final Rule: Employment and Training Opportunities in SNAP

    Reopening of Comment Period: SNAP Requirements for Able-Bodied Adults Without Dependents
        This proposed rule seeks to amend the regulatory standards by which USDA evaluates state Supplemental Nutrition Assistance Program agency requests to waive the time limit and to end the unlimited carryover of able-bodied adults without dependents (ABAWD) percentage exemptions.  FNS seeks to reopen the comment period on April 8, 2019, for a period of 3 days ending April 10, 2019.

    Proposed Rule: SNAP Requirements for Able-Bodied Adults Without Dependents
        The proposed rule would encourage broader application of the statutory ABAWD work requirement, consistent with the Administration's focus on fostering self-sufficiency.
