Obama made no changes to the waiver rules, Bush changed the yearly waiver rules suspending the 3/36 time limit in 2004 and in 2006 Bush expanded the waiver to 2 years.That is a lie! USDA did not mention a year at all. Well, at least you are trying a new lie, it was getting pretty boring with you repeating the same lies over and over.What did he change it too? It wasn't a year obama did that in 2009 the USDA SAID SO.
Bush changed the 3/36 waiver for the duration of the waiver which was one year.

Your right the guy said it was a years but the USDA SAID THIS
obama suspended the time limit. meaning they could have more than a year.The ARR A suspension of time limits
for jobless adults without children also
may have increased participation. Prior
to ARRA, SNAP participation by many
jobless, working-age, nondisabled adults
without children was limited to 3 months
within a 3-year period.
Again from your infallible USDA:

SUBJECT: FSP – 2-Year Approval of Waivers of the Work Requirements for
ABAWDs under 7 CFR 273.24
TO: All Regional Directors
Food Stamp Program
In response to requests from State agencies regarding the approval time-frame for
waivers of the work requirements for able-bodied adults without dependents (ABAWDs)
mandated by 7 CFR 273.24, we have decided to offer State agencies the option of 2-year
ABAWD waivers under limited circumstances. We believe that this option will reduce
the burden imposed on State agencies of preparing annual requests for waivers affecting
areas with chronic high unemployment as well as having the additional benefit of
facilitating longer range planning by the affected State agencies.
