Bill > HR1813

This bill amends the Child Nutrition Act of 1966 to establish specific maximum monthly milk allowances for different food packages under the Women, Infants, and Children (WIC) program. The WIC program is a federal nutrition assistance program that provides supplemental foods, healthcare referrals, and nutrition education to low-income pregnant women, new mothers, infants, and children up to age 5. The bill sets precise monthly milk limits for four different food packages (designated as Packages IV through VII), ranging from 16 to 24 quarts per month. Specifically, Food Package IV is limited to 16 quarts, while Food Packages V and VI are both capped at 22 quarts, and Food Package VII allows for the highest monthly milk allocation at 24 quarts. These standardized milk allowances aim to provide consistent nutritional support while maintaining control over program costs and ensuring appropriate milk consumption for different participant groups within the WIC program.
