SNAP/FOOD STAMPS: Modifies the use of SNAP benefits to include food delivery costs

This legislative bill is a concurrent resolution that does not change any laws but instead asks the Louisiana Department of Health to study the idea of letting SNAP recipients use their benefits to pay for grocery delivery fees. The proposal focuses on helping elderly people and those with mobility issues who struggle to travel to stores, as current federal rules generally prevent using SNAP funds for delivery costs. If the study finds it feasible, the department would report its findings and recommendations to state lawmakers by February 1, 2027. This measure is purely informational and requires no immediate action or funding, serving only to gather data on the potential impact of such a policy change.
