Bill overview
This bill modifies California law regarding data sharing for the CalFresh program, which provides food assistance to low-income individuals. Specifically, it removes the existing authorization allowing public entities to share data with the Department of Social Services to improve CalFresh administration and participation. This change limits the department’s ability to collaborate with other agencies for these purposes. The bill was approved by the Governor and signed into law.
