Benefits for the poor are always temporary
Especially when you have republicans controlling one of the lawmaking bodies.

This one covered households making 2x the poverty level. I bet a lot of people qualified that didn't realize it, including myself.
Originally it was just the poorer people. They lowered the discount and increased the qualifications for some reason.
