More Summer EBT admin funding for states

If enacted, the Secretary of Agriculture would pay each State 90 percent of its monthly administrative costs for running the Summer EBT program for children. The 90 percent reimbursement would also cover monthly administrative costs for related SNAP work. Payments would be federal reimbursements sent to States each fiscal year, but only for years the State operates the Summer EBT program. This change would take effect upon enactment.
