Summary
The FAIR Act amends the Food and Nutrition Act of 2008 to require that electronic benefit transfer (EBT) cards used for the Supplemental Nutrition Assistance Program (SNAP) include a photograph of the authorized cardholder. The bill mandates that retailers verify the cardholder's identity by inspecting the photograph before processing SNAP purchases. It includes exceptions for caregivers of minors, individuals with disabilities, and elderly individuals, and allows households with multiple authorized members to receive individual cards with their own photographs.
