Agriculture Secretary Brooke Rollins said on Nov. 14 that all recipients of the Supplemental Nutrition Assistance Program (SNAP) will need to meet reapplication requirements in efforts to “clean up” the food assistance program.

Discussing the levels of fraud that have been uncovered in her department’s audit of state SNAP data, Rollins told Newsmax’s “Rob Schmitt Tonight” that the Trump administration’s focus on SNAP is to ensure that taxpayer resources are going to the truly vulnerable and not being drained by fraud and abuse.
