The Trump administration is moving to cut off more than 6 million people from receiving Supplemental Nutrition Assistance Program (SNAP) benefits.

According to Reuters, a proposed rule from the U.S. Department of Agriculture would reduce the number of SNAP recipients by nearly 18%.

Big picture view: The proposed USDA rule would eliminate automatic SNAP eligibility for families who already receive Temporary Assistance for Needy Families (TANF).
