Bill > SF1950

This bill appropriates state funds specifically for improving and expanding food shelf infrastructure across Minnesota. The legislation allocates an unspecified amount of money from the state's general fund in both fiscal years 2026 and 2027, with the funds to be administered by the commissioner of children, youth, and families. The grants will be available to a diverse range of potential recipients, including nonprofit organizations, federally recognized Tribal governments, and local government units, with the primary goal of supporting and enhancing facilities that distribute emergency food supplies. By targeting food shelf infrastructure, the bill aims to strengthen the state's capacity to provide food assistance and support vulnerable populations by helping organizations improve their physical spaces and distribution capabilities.
