Fresh Bucks Bill Could Change Food Access | Indianapolis News
Description
A new bill, the “Fresh Bucks for Fresh Produce” Act, could soon pump $60 a month into the pockets of low- and moderate-income households to buy fruits and veggies — no matter if they’re on SNAP or not. Inspired by Seattle’s successful pilot, it’s designed to boost food security and nutrition nationwide. The bill’s sponsor, Rep. Pramila Jayapal, is pushing hard for swift approval through Congress before potential SNAP cuts hit — with the goal of making healthy food affordable for everyone.
