HR 2489 United States House · 119th Congress

Hunger-Free Future Act of 2025

The Hunger-Free Future Act of 2025 amends the SNAP program to require that any update to the thrifty food plan must not increase food insecurity. It mandates that adjustments to the diet cost must continue following existing rules while explicitly ensuring updates do not worsen food insecurity, defined as households lacking adequate food due to insufficient money or resources. This directly affects SNAP beneficiaries by setting a new standard for how the program's cost calculations are reviewed. The bill changes the procedural requirement for SNAP re-evaluations without altering benefit amounts or eligibility rules.
