What this bill does
This bill, known as the Snap Delivery Modernization Act of 2025, proposes to amend the Food and Nutrition Act of 2008. Its core aim is to allow recipients of Supplemental Nutrition Assistance Program (SNAP) benefits to use those benefits to cover the costs associated with food delivery services. This would involve defining what constitutes a "delivery platform or delivery services provider" and modifying existing provisions related to how SNAP benefits can be spent.
The bill would affect individuals who receive SNAP benefits by potentially increasing their access to food. It aims to make it easier for them to purchase groceries by allowing the use of their benefits for delivery fees, in addition to the cost of the food itself. The bill has been introduced in the House of Representatives by Representative Cleo Fields and has been referred to the Committee on Agriculture.
As a newly introduced bill, it has not yet been debated or voted on by the full House or Senate. The next step in the legislative process would be for the Committee on Agriculture to review the bill, potentially hold hearings, and decide whether to advance it to the full House for consideration.
