Fresh Produce for Families Act of 2026

This bill would change the Emergency Food Assistance Act of 1983, which supplies food to states for distribution to people in need. If a state agency asks, the Secretary of Agriculture could let that state use up to 20 percent of the cost of its allocated food commodities to order fruits and vegetables through the Department of Defense Fresh Fruit and Vegetable Program. The change would be optional for each state and would require the Secretary's approval.
