The Ensuring Health in SNAP Act of 2024 would allow individual states to voluntarily restrict what foods people can buy with food stamp benefits. Specifically, states could choose to ban purchases of soft drinks, candy, ice cream, and prepared desserts like cakes, pies, and cookies using Supplemental Nutrition Assistance Program (SNAP) benefits. The federal government would provide states with a list of specific items that fall into these restricted categories. States would have complete discretion to implement these restrictions without needing federal approval or submitting special reports beyond their normal program requirements. The bill does not establish any funding or specific timeline for implementation, leaving all decisions up to individual state agencies.
