Provides that the waiver application shall propose to align the number of required community engagement and work hours to the work requirements under the Supplemental Nutrition Assistance Program by requiring all non-exempt individuals to complete 20 hours per week (80 hours per month) of qualifying activities to remain eligible for medical assistance benefits. Provides that under the waiver, certain persons shall be exempt from the community engagement and work requirements, including children under the age of 19, pregnant women, and full-time students.
