Bill Summary
A bill for an act relating to food support; appropriating money to fund food shelf programs.
AI Summary
This bill appropriates $4 million in state funding for each of two fiscal years (2026 and 2027) to support food shelf programs in Minnesota. The money will be drawn from the state's general fund and will be allocated to the commissioner of children, youth, and families specifically to support food shelf programs as outlined in Minnesota Statutes, section 142F.14. An important feature of this appropriation is that the funding will be added to the base budget, which means these funds are intended to become a recurring source of support for food shelves rather than a one-time allocation. By providing consistent funding, the bill aims to help food shelves continue their critical work of providing food assistance to individuals and families in need across Minnesota.
