Supplementary state food stamp program for elderly recipients; create and fund.

SB 2460 would create a Mississippi state program providing an additional $100 monthly food assistance supplement to residents aged 65 or older who receive federal food stamps. The bill directs the Department of Human Services to establish and fund this program, with eligibility limited to elderly recipients. It specifies that the supplemental aid is in addition to existing federal benefits and requires the department to create rules for administration. The bill died in committee in February 2026 and was never enacted.
