Summary of Bill S 1100

Bill 119 s 1100, also known as the Food and Nutrition Act, aims to make changes to the definition of food under the supplemental nutrition assistance program (SNAP). The bill seeks to expand the types of items that can be purchased with SNAP benefits, in order to provide more flexibility and options for individuals and families in need of assistance.

Specifically, the bill proposes to modify the current definition of food to include items such as vitamins, minerals, and other dietary supplements. This would allow SNAP recipients to use their benefits to purchase these essential health products, in addition to traditional food items.

These provisions are aimed at improving the efficiency and effectiveness of the program, while ensuring that benefits are being used appropriately and in accordance with program guidelines. Overall, Bill 119 s 1100 represents a potential opportunity to enhance the SNAP program and better meet the needs of individuals and families who rely on this vital assistance.
