Bill Summary
A BILL To compensate victims of theft of supplemental nutrition assistance program benefits, and for other purposes.
AI Summary
This bill seeks to extend the funding period for replacing Supplemental Nutrition Assistance Program (SNAP) benefits that have been stolen. Specifically, the bill amends an existing provision of law by changing the year of funding authorization from 2024 to 2034, effectively providing an additional decade for state agencies to reimburse SNAP recipients whose benefits have been fraudulently taken. SNAP, commonly known as food stamps, is a federal program that helps low-income individuals and families purchase food. By extending the funding replacement period, the bill aims to ensure that victims of SNAP benefit theft can continue to receive compensation for a longer timeframe, potentially providing more security and financial protection for vulnerable populations who rely on these critical nutrition assistance benefits.
