A bill for an act relating to the double up food bucks program, the supplemental nutrition assistance program and making appropriations and including effective date provisions.

This bill appropriates $1 million for the 2025-2026 fiscal year to fund Iowa's Double Up Food Bucks program, which helps SNAP recipients buy fresh produce at farmers markets and grocery stores. It requires grant recipients to match funds dollar-for-dollar and allows unspent funds to carry over. The bill also directs Iowa's health department to request a federal waiver changing SNAP eligibility to restrict benefits to "healthy" foods like fruits, vegetables, grains, and lean proteins. The funding and eligibility changes would take effect only after federal approval of the waiver.
