Summary
This bill amends the Food and Nutrition Act of 2008 to expand Supplemental Nutrition Assistance Program (SNAP) benefits for households that receive federal or state energy assistance. Specifically, it allows state agencies to apply a standard utility allowance (which increases SNAP benefits) to households receiving Low-Income Home Energy Assistance Act payments or similar energy assistance programs exceeding $20 annually. The bill also treats third-party energy assistance payments as household income and energy expenses as out-of-pocket costs for purposes of SNAP benefit calculations.
