Qué contiene
Resumen con IA Iowa would provide $1 million in extra funding to help people using SNAP buy more fresh fruits and vegetables through the Double Up Food Bucks program. The state would also ask the federal government for permission to limit SNAP benefits to only healthy foods like grains, dairy, meat, and produce. Any group receiving these new grants must match the money they are given with at least an equal amount of their own funds. (Todavía no está traducido al español.)1

This bill relates to eligible foods for the supplemental nutrition assistance program (SNAP) and double up food bucks program. The bill makes a $1 million supplemental appropriation from the general fund of the state to the department of health and human services (HHS) for fiscal year 2025-2026, in addition to any other funding appropriated for such purpose for the same fiscal year, to provide grants to support the double up food bucks program administered by the Iowa healthiest state initiative to make fresh fruits and vegetables sold at farmers markets, grocery stores, and other participating locations accessible to individuals and families who reside in this state and receive assistance through SNAP. The bill requires a double up food bucks program grant recipient to provide at least a dollar-for-dollar match of the grant assistance. The bill requires HHS to request a waiver from the United States department of agriculture, food and nutrition service to provide that the eligible foods under state administration of SNAP only include healthy food based on necessary nutrition for good health, including but not limited to healthy grains, dairy, meat, eggs, peanut butter and nuts, pasta, rice, legumes, and fruits and vegetables. The supplemental appropriation for the double up food bucks program takes effect on the date HHS receives federal approval of the SNAP waiver, if the waiver is approved.
Por qué importa. Individuals and families in Iowa who receive SNAP assistance would see changes to the types of foods they can purchase if the state receives a federal waiver to limit eligible items to healthy foods. The Department of Health and Human Services would receive a $1 million supplemental appropriation from the general fund for fiscal year 2025-2026 to provide grants that help make fresh fruits and vegetables more accessible through the double up food bucks program.
