WASHINGTON (AP) — House Republican leaders say food stamps serve too many Americans and the almost $80 billion-a-year program needs to be slimmed down.

This week, the House is expected vote on a bill that would cut almost $4 billion a year from food stamps. The bill, opposed by most every Democrat, would let states put broad new work requirements in place for many recipients and permit drug tests for people who apply. And it would end government waivers that have allowed able-bodied adults who don’t have dependents to receive food stamps indefinitely.
