The House voted Thursday to strengthen work requirements for many food stamp recipients, by approving a five-year farm bill that lawmakers rejected last month.

In a rare re-vote, lawmakers narrowly approved the 2018 Agriculture and Nutrition Act, an $867 billion bill authorizing farm programs and policy, as well as the Supplemental Nutrition Assistance Program, otherwise known as food stamps.
