What this bill does
- USDA must give states and public 60 days to comment before making major changes to how SNAP eligibility is checked.
- State agencies that run SNAP and organizations serving low-income households are affected by quality control review procedures.
- The rule applies immediately to new guidance; urgent situations allow interim rules while comments are being collected.
