## Summary

**Mandatory SNAP fraud data reporting tied to state funding.** This bill would require States to send standardized data on fraud in the Supplemental Nutrition Assistance Program and lets the Secretary of Agriculture withhold SNAP administrative funds if a State misses reporting deadlines. - States must submit an initial data package within 180 days covering the most recently concluded five fiscal years. If a State misses the deadline the Secretary will withhold SNAP administrative funds until the data are received. - The Secretary of Agriculture must compile those submissions into a public report and publish an initial report within 180 days after receiving the first round of data, then provide annual online reports thereafter. - Required data categories include counts of open investigations and identified fraud, dollar amounts of fraud, enforcement actions, recoveries, and counts of disqualifications tied to deceased identities or Social Security number misuse.
