This bill amends the Food and Nutrition Act of 2008 to establish new safety standards for grocery stores and food sellers that offer online shopping and delivery services to SNAP (food stamp) participants. Within 18 months of enactment, federal food and nutrition agencies must create standards covering digital privacy, cybersecurity, worker protections, and food safety during delivery. Retailers seeking to participate in SNAP must then report their compliance with these standards, and those that fail to meet them will lose their authorization to accept SNAP benefits until they come into compliance. The legislation affects retailers, delivery service workers, and SNAP participants who use online and delivery options to purchase food, with no specific federal funding amount allocated in the text provided.
