relating to work requirements and employment and training services | ||
for certain persons receiving benefits under the supplemental | ||
nutrition assistance program. | ||
BE IT ENACTED BY THE LEGISLATURE OF THE STATE OF TEXAS: | ||
SECTION 1. Subchapter A, Chapter 33, Human Resources Code, | ||
is amended by adding Sections 33.016 and 33.017 to read as follows: | ||
Sec. 33.016. CERTAIN EXEMPTIONS FROM SNAP WORK REQUIREMENTS | ||
PROHIBITED. The commission may not: | ||
(1) request a waiver of the applicability of work | ||
requirements as authorized under 7 U.S.C. Section 2015(o)(4); or | ||
(2) provide an exemption from work requirements as | ||
authorized under 7 U.S.C. Section 2015(o)(6). | ||
Sec. 33.017. EMPLOYMENT AND TRAINING SERVICES FOR CERTAIN | ||
SNAP RECIPIENTS. The commission, in conjunction with the Texas | ||
Workforce Commission, shall ensure that a person who is at least 18 | ||
years of age but younger than 50 years of age, who has no | ||
dependents, and who does not have a disability receives | ||
supplemental nutrition assistance program employment and training | ||
services unless the person is eligible for an individual waiver | ||
under the program. | ||
SECTION 2. The changes in law made by this Act apply only to | ||
an initial determination or recertification of eligibility for the | ||
supplemental nutrition assistance program under Chapter 33, Human | ||
Resources Code, that is made on or after the effective date of this | ||
Act. A determination or recertification made before the effective | ||
date of this Act is governed by the law in effect on the date the | ||
determination or recertification was made, and the former law is | ||
continued in effect for that purpose. | ||
SECTION 3. If before implementing any provision of this Act | ||
a state agency determines that a waiver or authorization from a | ||
federal agency is necessary for implementation of that provision, | ||
the agency affected by the provision shall request the waiver or | ||
authorization and may delay implementing that provision until the | ||
waiver or authorization is granted. | ||
SECTION 4. This Act takes effect September 1, 2021. |
