Many of the state laws on the food stamp work requirement exempt those in a county with unemployment rates higher than a certain amount. The idea is that if there are few jobs it is unfair to require work. Rural areas often have high unemployment rates. But those in a big city are more likely to live where the unemployment rate is lower. So an unemployed person in an inner city neighborhood may have just as much trouble finding a job but loses food stamps because of greater employment in other parts of the county. So the idea is to screw “those people” while not losing Republican votes.

Bypass the states ability to exempt counties from it. The argument was that Trump has made the economy so great, there’s plenty of jobs for everyone.

I think states under Trump’s rule can still waive the work requirement for areas with unemployment rates of at least 6%, exceeding the national average by 20% for more than 24 months. In other words rural areas where Republicans live will not be required to work. While democrats in cities will lose food stamps.
