Each new presidential administration brings potential changes to public assistance programs. With the start of the second Trump administration and Republican control of both the House and Senate, panelists will discuss key policies and administrative moves, including those affecting food assistance (SNAP), Medicaid, child care subsidies, and benefits like the Earned Income Tax Credit and Child Tax Credit. They will also explore how shifts in the federal bureaucracy could impact program administration.
