Senior Nutrition Task Force Act of 2023

HR 4706, the Senior Nutrition Task Force Act of 2023, establishes an interagency task force to coordinate federal efforts addressing hunger and improving access to healthy food for older adults and adults with disabilities. The task force, led by the Agriculture Secretary and including representatives from multiple federal agencies (like Health, Transportation, and Veterans Affairs), will identify best practices, measure progress, and examine barriers to collaboration across existing nutrition programs. It requires the task force to submit a report to Congress by September 2026 detailing recommendations, existing barriers, and innovative approaches to reduce food insecurity for these groups. The bill does not create new benefits but focuses on improving coordination among current federal nutrition services.
