Bill overview
This bill aims to speed up the process for grocery stores to accept SNAP benefits through online transactions. It requires the Secretary of Agriculture to review applications from these retailers and make a decision – either approve or deny – within 180 days of receiving the application. If the Secretary cannot meet this deadline, they must notify Congress explaining the reason for the delay. The bill seeks to improve access to SNAP benefits for recipients who prefer online shopping.
