American Food Supply Chain Resiliency Act

This bill would make permanent a U.S. Department of Agriculture program that gives money to states through cooperative agreements to build up food processing, storage, transport, and distribution. States would award competitive grants of $100,000 to $3,000,000 to local governments, tribes, farmers, nonprofits, small businesses, and certain institutions, plus smaller equipment-only grants of $10,000 to $100,000. Each state would receive at least $1,000,000 a year, and $200 million a year would be authorized for fiscal years 2027 through 2031. The bill would also set up at least 10 regional food systems hubs and one intertribal hub to give business help and financial assistance to farms and food businesses, with $75 million a year authorized for the same years.
