This bill amends the Child Nutrition Act of 1966 to establish maximum monthly limits on fruit juice that can be provided through the WIC program, which serves low-income women, infants, and children. The legislation sets a cap of 128 fluid ounces per month for juice in four specific WIC food packages (Packages IV through VII). The bill affects participating WIC programs nationwide and the families they serve, potentially shifting the types or quantities of nutritional assistance available. No specific funding amounts or implementation timeline are included in the legislation, meaning changes would take effect according to standard regulatory procedures once enacted.
