The Trump administration wants to tighten the rules governing who qualifies for food stamps, which could end up stripping more than 3 million people of their benefits.The Agriculture Department issued a proposed rule Tuesday that curtails so-called broad-based categorical eligibility, which makes it easier for Americans with somewhat higher incomes and more savings to participate in the Supplemental Nutrition Assistance Program, or SNAP, the formal name for food stamps.It is the administration's latest step to clamp down on the food stamps program, which covers 38 million Americans, and other public assistance services. It wants to require more poor people to work for SNAP benefits, and it is looking to change the way the poverty threshold is calculated, a move that could strip many low-income residents of their federal benefits over time.Broad-based categorical eligibility allows states to streamline the food stamps application process for folks who qualify for certain benefits under the Temporary Assistance for Needy Families program. Some 40 states, plus the District of Columbia, use this option, which lets them eliminate the asset test and raise one of the income thresholds.Republicans have long argued that this expanded eligibility option is a "loophole" that permits those with higher incomes and assets to get public assistance. GOP lawmakers have tried to limit it several times -- including in last year's farm bill, though it didn't make it into the final version. The proposed USDA rule is expected to save .5 billion a year."For too long, this loophole has been used to effectively bypass important eligibility guidelines," said Agriculture Secretary Sonny Perdue, who pointed out on a call with reporters that a millionaire in Minnesota recently enrolled through the option to highlight the problems with it. "That is why we are changing the rules, preventing abuse of a critical safety net system, so those who need food assistance the most are the only ones who receive it."Consumer advocates, however, say that the option helps low-income working Americans get the help they need. They still must meet the disposable income threshold for the food stamp program, though they can have a higher gross income (before deductions such as child care costs are taken into account).The option is "an opportunity-oriented policy to promote work and promote savings," said Stacy Dean, vice president for food assistance at the left-leaning Center on Budget and Policy Priorities. 2518

Tokyo Olympic athletes beware — particularly larger ones.The bed frames in the Athletes Village at this year’s Olympics will be made of cardboard. Sturdy cardboard.“Those beds can stand up to 200 kilograms,” explained Takashi Kitajima, the general manager of the Athletes Village, speaking through an interpreter. That’s about 440 pounds, and surely no Olympic athlete weighs that much.“They are stronger than wooden beds,” Kitajima added.He also took into account the possibility of a wild room celebration after, say, a gold-medal victory.“Of course, wood and cardboard would each break if you jumped on them,” he said.The single bed frames will be recycled into paper products after the games. The mattress components — the mattresses are not made of cardboard — will be recycled into plastic products.The mattress is broken up into three distinct sections, and the firmness of each can be adjusted.The idea was to use materials that could be remade after the Olympics and Paralympics. But the cardboard frames and supports should give the rooms a spartan look. Organizers showed off the beds and a few other furnishings on Thursday at their headquarters. The entire Athletes Village complex will be completed in June. The Olympics open on July 24 followed by the Paralympics on Aug. 25.“The organizing committee was thinking about recyclable items, and the bed was one of the ideas,” Kitajima explained, crediting local Olympic sponsor Airweave Inc. for the execution.Organizers say this is the first time that the beds and bedding in the Athletes Village have been made of renewable materials.The Athletes Village being built alongside Tokyo Bay will comprise 18,000 beds for the Olympics and be composed to 21 apartment towers. Even more building construction is being planned in the next several years.Real estate ads say the units will be sold off afterward, or rented, with sale prices starting from about 54 million yen — or about 0,000 — and soaring to three or four times that much. Some fear the apartments will flood the market, possibly impacting property values.The units will be sold off by various real estate companies. Ads suggest many of the units will be slightly larger than a typical apartment in Tokyo, which is about 60-70 square meters — or 650-750 square feet.___More AP sports: 2322

They are the people whose plight brought comedian and activist Jon Stewart to tears during an impassioned appearance before Congress this week over funds for other ailing first responders to the 9/11 terrorist attacks.They bear lasting scars from their long hours of work in the pile of destruction that remained after the World Trade Center collapsed nearly 18 years ago.They breathed in noxious air clouded with debris from the fallen buildings after officials assured them it was safe.They have now discovered -- long after the shattered heart of Lower Manhattan was brought back to life -- debilitating illnesses and cancers festering in their bodies.As of May, more than 12,500 cases of cancer had been diagnosed. The most-diagnosed ailments, however, are upper and lower respiratory and gastrointestinal problems, musculoskeletal disorders and mental health conditions.Here are two of their stories: He lost part of left foot to gangrene after ground zero accidentJohn Feal and his crew of demolition experts arrived at ground zero the morning after the towers collapsed."What everybody saw we can deal with ... but the smell is everlasting," he recalled this week. "If I close my eyes and think about it, I smell it."It still keeps him up at night."It smelled like the devil," he said. "The carnage devastation and destruction. If I had a picture of that smell, it would be a picture of the devil."With machines, tools and their hands, the small army of civilians ferreted through tons of twisted steel, rubble and debris.On the fifth day, with 30 minutes left on his 12-hour shift, an 8,000-pound slab of steel broke loose from the pile and crushed his left foot.Feal, 52, spent 11 weeks in the hospital. Doctors amputated his left foot after gangrene set in. He had nearly 40 surgeries and countless hours of therapy. He also was diagnosed with post traumatic stress disorder."I went there thinking that I could make a difference and I got hurt," he said. "My difference making came later."He founded the 2025

The word home can mean a lot of different things, but it also usually means a safe space where you can go and rest your head. “May 20, 2010 was my move in date,” said Lisa Saenz who lives in the Denver neighborhood of Sun Valley. It's affordable housing run by the Denver housing authority. It's been Saenz’s home for a long time. When Saenz first moved here, she says it wasn’t such a great place to live. “It was a lot of nonsense by the neighbors and kind of a lot of crime. I was kind of scared to come outside and leave. I used to keep the kids inside,” said Saenz. But she says things have really changed since, and Sun Valley feels more like a community. “My neighbors are my family, I didn’t have one, I still don’t have one. I’m like the last survivor besides my two kids,” said Saenz. Ismael Guerrero who runs the Denver Housing Authority says for a long time, it was tough to get people to talk about the need for public housing. “Public housing, affordable housing overall, for many years has not been the highest priority politically as a policy,” said Guerrero.And if you ask Saenz, that stigma is real. “I remember once my son’s friend from middle school knew that we lived here. He was invited his friend to spend the night, but once his mom knew he lived here, he wasn’t allowed to come over and it kind of made my son feel bad," Saenz said. But Guerrero is trying to change the narrative around public housing, and he’s trying to make Sun Valley, look more like this. The Mariposa community is just 10 minutes away, but looks totally different. Guerrero says it’s an example of public housing in the 21st century. It’s what people who work in public housing call a mixed income community. A blend of market rate apartments and homes mixed in with low income units. “What I get really excited about is not just the housing we provide, but I think the quality of life we can bring out residents, especially in our newer communities,” said Guerrero. And the transformation has already started in Sun Valley. Construction has started on new mixed income units in the neighborhood. DHA’s plan says all of the low income units will be replaced and the area will add market rate units as well. “Going from maybe 350 total units of housing in that neighborhood today probably to over 500 units over the next five years,” said Guerrero. Lisa says she's not worried about being pushed out of the new neighborhood. “I don’t think it’s a bad thing, and no they’re not making us leave. We leave if we don’t want to live here... I think all anywhere you go there’s going to be change, not just Sun Valley," said Saenz. She's right. According to the National Low Income Housing Coalition, America needs at least 7 million more affordable homes than what's currently available. And cities all over are looking for solutions. “There’s more political will I think locally and at the state levels now because mayors and council members and commissioners are having to deal with residents across a wider income spectrum who are saying hey, I can’t work and live in my own neighborhood, in my own community and we need to do something about that,” said Guerrero There are a lot of creative solutions out there from the tiny home fad to providing a tax credit to renters or even having tech giants do their fair share and donate hundreds of millions of dollars to affordable housing programs like Amazon and Microsoft have pledged to do. But one solution is in every report and study. Build more homes. More affordable homes. Because when people have a safe affordable place to live, their house becomes a home, and their neighborhood becomes a community. “That really has an impact in terms of youth doing better in school, our families across the board having healthier food options, healthier transportation options, and our seniors being able to age in place in a healthy way that lets them live independently for much longer,” said Guerrero. 3963
