Local Farms and Food Act of 2023

United States · United States Congress · 19 April 2023

Local Farms and Food Act of 2023 This bill modifies the Local Agriculture Market Program (LAMP), the Senior Farmers' Market Nutrition Program, and the Gus Schumacher Nutrition Incentive Program (GusNIP). The bill reauthorizes LAMP through FY2028, provides additional funding for the program, and expands the program to include grants for food hubs. The bill defines a food hub as a business or organization that actively manages the aggregation, distribution, and marketing of source-identified food products to multiple buyers from multiple producers, who are primarily local and regional producers, to strengthen the ability of those producers to satisfy local and regional wholesale, retail, and institutional demands.

Specifically, the bill reauthorizes and increases funding for the Organic Agriculture Research and Extension Initiative, a grant program which funds projects to enhance the ability of producers and processors who have already adopted organic standards to grow and market organic high quality agricultural products. USDA may also provide competitive grants for research, education, and extension activities regarding the transition from nonorganic production systems into organic production. The grants may be offered for the purposes of overcoming social, economic, and management barriers to organic transition; documenting and understanding the effects of organic practices on ecosystem services (e.g., soil health and fertility); and developing improved technologies, methods, models, and metrics for transitioning to organic management. USDA may prioritize grants for proposals that actively involve certain historically Black colleges and universities, tribal colleges or universities, and Hispanic-serving agricultural colleges and universities.  The bill also provides additional funding for the Organic Production and Market Data Initiatives to collect data and report on the production and marketing of organic agricultural products. Further, USDA's Economic Research Service must conduct an economic impact analysis of organic agriculture and submit a report to Congress.

SNAP Reform and Upward Mobility Act of 2023

United States · United States Congress · 18 April 2023

SNAP Reform and Upward Mobility Act of 2023 This bill amends how U.S. poverty levels are determined and amends the Supplemental Nutrition Assistance Program (SNAP). The Bureau of the Census must (1) collect specified data regarding the receipt of federal benefits and individual income, and (2) use the data to provide an alternative poverty measure. The bill also establishes a Commission on Valuation of Federal Benefits to recommend the valuation of specific federal benefits for the purpose of estimating the Federal Poverty Level. This bill expands the applicability of the work requirements for SNAP recipients who are able-bodied adults without dependents (ABAWDs). (These individuals have further work requirements in addition to the general SNAP work-related requirements.)  Specifically, this bill applies the work requirements for ABAWDs to adults who are not over 64 years old (currently this applies to those not over 50 years old). The bill also limits the ABAWD exclusion for a parent or other member of a household with responsibility for a dependent child to those with responsibility for a child under the age of six, which means that those with a child over the age of six must fulfill the work-related requirements. Further, the bill allows married individuals with a dependent over the age of six to jointly fulfill hour-based work requirements. Each state participating in SNAP must contribute specified matching funds for Department of Agriculture program administration funding contributions. The required match begins at 10% for FY2023 and increases annually until it reaches 50% for FY2031 and each subsequent fiscal year.   The bill also addresses potential fraud in SNAP by, among other things, requiring SNAP beneficiaries to participate in fraud investigations and establishing penalties (e.g., benefit suspensions) for unauthorized uses of electronic benefit transfer (EBT) cards.

Keeping Families Fed Act of 2023

United States · United States Congress · 17 April 2023

Keeping Families Fed Act of 2023 This bill extends for one year the availability of certain increased Supplemental Nutrition Assistance Program (SNAP) benefits. Congress authorized temporary increases to SNAP benefits during the COVID-19 pandemic, which are known as emergency allotments. These benefits ended nationwide after the February 2023 issuance. This bill continues that program for one year. Further, the Department of Agriculture must submit to Congress a strategy plan for state agencies to (1) provide resources and guidance for public awareness of the extension of the emergency allotments, and (2) prepare for the end of this program.

Protecting Horses from Soring Act of 2023

United States · United States Congress · 17 April 2023

School Meals Expansion Act

United States · United States Congress · 10 April 2023

School Meals Expansion Act This bill expands eligibility for the Community Eligibility Provision (CEP) of the school lunch program. It also increases the reimbursement rate for schools under the CEP. (The CEP allows eligible schools, groups of schools, and school districts the option to offer breakfast and lunch at no cost to all enrolled students without collecting household applications.) This bill lowers the threshold for a school to participate in the CEP to an identified student percentage (ISP) of at least 25%, from 40%. The ISP is the percentage of students who are eligible for free school meals without a household application, primarily those who are directly certified through the Supplemental Nutrition Assistance Program (SNAP). The bill also increases the reimbursement multiplier for school meals to 2.5 from the current 1.6, effectively increasing the reimbursement rate for the CEP participating schools. The reimbursement multiplier is used to calculate how many meals will be reimbursed at the free meal rate. A higher multiplier means more meals will be reimbursed at this higher rate.

Cattle Fever Tick Eradication Program Enhancement Act

United States · United States Congress · 30 March 2023

Cattle Fever Tick Eradication Program Enhancement Act This bill requires the Department of Agriculture (USDA) to enter into a contract to evaluate the Cattle Fever Tick Eradication Program.

Specifically, USDA must enter into a contract to review and report on the Cattle Fever Tick Eradication Program with a (1) land-grant college or university, or (2) non-land-grant college of agriculture. The review must include an evaluation of the program's effectiveness with respect to preventing and reducing the spread of tick-borne illnesses in cattle; the program's benefits, and the burdens of compliance, to cattle producers; the treatment protocols developed and implemented under the program; and the federal and state funds allocated to support the program for the most recent fiscal year.

Farm Credit Administration Independent Authority Act

United States · United States Congress · 30 March 2023

The bill also requires FCS institutions to (1) request that loan applicants and borrowers that are small farmers disclose information identifying their race, sex, and ethnicity; and (2) annually report the collected information to the FCA. If an FCS institution customer does not voluntarily report the requested information, the FCA may not require the institution to use other means to deduce the information.

United States · United States Congress · 30 March 2023

More Options to Develop and Enhance Remote Nutrition in WIC Act of 2023 or the MODERN WIC Act of 2023 This bill permanently allows individuals to remotely certify their eligibility for, and receive benefits through, the Special Supplemental Nutrition Program for Women, Infants, and Children (WIC). Specifically, the bill allows an individual seeking a WIC certification, recertification, or a nutritional risk evaluation to do so by phone or through video teleconference, in addition to the in-person option. The bill also allows states to provide benefits on WIC electronic benefit transfer cards through mail or remote issuance instead of requiring participants to pick up or reload benefits in person at a WIC office. The bill also reauthorizes Food and Nutrition Service (FNS) WIC funding for infrastructure, management information systems, and special nutrition education through FY2029. Specified funds must be used to establish, develop, improve, replace, or administer technology platforms that allow for secure communication between health care providers and program clinics under the program. Further, the Department of Agriculture must report to Congress about the use of remote technologies and other digital tools in the WIC program. Under current law, individuals are generally required to be physically present to certify their WIC eligibility and receive benefits, with exceptions. The FNS has temporarily waived these requirements and allowed remote certification and benefits using authorities that were originally provided by laws that were enacted to address the COVID-19 pandemic.

Rebuilding the United States-Flag International Fleet Act

United States · United States Congress · 29 March 2023

Rebuilding the United States-Flag International Fleet Act This bill reinstates and augments certain cargo preference requirements and addresses related issues. (Cargo preference requirements specify that a minimum percentage of federally financed ocean cargo must be transported on U.S.-flagged commercial vessels.) Under current law, federal agencies must ensure that 50% of the gross tonnage of their purchases and cargo transported via ocean vessel is carried on eligible U.S.-flagged commercial vessels. The bill increases this requirement to 75%. The Maritime Administration (MARAD) must issue regulations and interagency guidance implementing this policy and an earlier-enacted preference applicable to military cargo. The bill also reinstates a requirement for 25% of the total gross tonnage of certain federally financed agricultural cargo to be transported on U.S.-flagged commercial vessels. This requirement, which was repealed in a 2012 law, shall apply in addition to the 75% requirement. Specifically, the additional 25% requirement applies to commodities, specialty crops, and food products exported by the Department of Agriculture under designated international food assistance programs, including the Food for Peace Act and the Food for Progress Act of 1985. The Department of Transportation (DOT) must finance any increased ocean freight expenses incurred as a result of the 25% cargo preference requirement. The bill also details registration requirements for a vessel to be eligible to haul cargo under each preference. DOT may temporarily waive these requirements under limited emergency circumstances if MARAD determines that there is an inadequate supply of vessels to satisfy the requirements.
