Summary
The bill amends the Food and Nutrition Act of 2008 so that each state must give the Secretary of Agriculture detailed SNAP participant information when asked. States must deliver the data within 30 days (or sooner if urgency is declared) and face possible fund withholding if they do not comply. It aims to improve program oversight while protecting privacy under existing federal law.
