Alabama began 2017 by requiring able-bodied adults without children in 13 counties to either find a job or participate in work training as a condition for continuing to receive Supplemental Nutrition Assistance Program (SNAP) benefits.
According to AL.com, the number of those recipients declined from 5,538 to 831 between Jan. 1 and the beginning of May – an 85 percent drop.
.
Alabama has about 850,000 residents on SNAP, so reducing by 4000 was a .5% reduction.
a fifty percent reduction

One half of one percent.
