Impact for Everyday Citizens:
These policy shifts could severely impact those who rely on government assistance, including low-income families, the elderly, and disabled individuals. Reduced support could lead to increased poverty, inability to access essential healthcare, and a higher risk of homelessness. The imposition of work requirements may further challenge those physically unable to work, exacerbating their vulnerabilities.
