RESET for America’s Future Act of 2023
Latest action (13 Jul 2023): Introduced
What this bill does
The RESET for America's Future Act of 2023 would amend the Food and Nutrition Act of 2008 to change how SNAP (food stamp) employment and training programs are funded and evaluated. It would create a new "innovation employment and training program" option under which the U.S. Department of Agriculture would fully reimburse state agencies for program costs that either use evidence-based practices with proven positive effects on employment or earnings, or are being formally evaluated for such effects, including through performance-based contracts. It also allows full reimbursement of transportation and other supportive service costs for these components, lets states count other federal funding toward matching requirements, and creates a competitive grant program (with $15 million annually starting in FY2024) to help states build data systems to track employment and training outcomes. The bill designates $100 million per year for these new reimbursements.
The bill primarily affects state agencies that administer SNAP employment and training programs, and indirectly affects SNAP recipients who participate in these programs, some of whom would get extended eligibility (up to six months) if they lose SNAP eligibility while completing a training component. States would also face new reporting requirements to USDA, which would make certain program information public.
The bill was introduced in the Senate on July 13, 2023, by Senator Amy Klobuchar and referred to the Committee on Agriculture, Nutrition, and Forestry. It has not received a vote and, per the official record, did not advance further in the 118th Congress.
