SHOPP Act of 2023
The SHOPP Act of 2023 amends the Gus Schumacher Nutrition Incentive Program to expand eligibility for nutrition incentives. It adds legumes (like beans and lentils) to the list of eligible items and allows fresh frozen fruits and vegetables to be used year-round, instead of requiring only fresh produce. This directly affects low-income SNAP participants in the program who use incentives to buy healthier foods. The changes take effect March 6, 2024, making frozen produce and legumes accessible year-round under the incentive.
