Trump's food stamp reforms are working

After former Presidents Barack Obama and Joe Biden massively increased access to food stamps, President Donald Trump's reforms in the One Big Beautiful Bill Act are working to cut back the bloat. States have reportedly reduced food stamp rolls by 3.5 million people since the bill became law. Government spending is thus being cut, reducing deficits and increasing independence as more Americans get off the couch and back into the labor force. These are welcome developments that future administrations should preserve.

Before Obama, participation in the Supplemental Nutrition Assistance Program, more commonly known as food stamps, fluctuated with the economy, rising during recessions and falling during expansions, but never exceeding 10% of the population.
