SHOPP Act of 2025

The SHOPP Act of 2025 amends the Gus Schumacher Nutrition Incentive Program to expand eligible items for low-income SNAP participants. It adds fresh frozen fruits and vegetables to the list of qualifying produce and includes legumes (like beans and lentils) in place of the previous "fruits and vegetables" requirement. This change directly affects SNAP recipients using nutrition incentive programs at farmers' markets or participating retailers. The key provision allows participants to receive incentives for purchasing frozen produce and legumes, increasing year-round access to affordable healthy foods. The bill modifies existing program rules without changing funding levels or eligibility criteria.
