Hunger-Free Future Act of 2025

Sponsored By: Representative Brown, Shontel M. [D-OH-11]

In Committee

Summary

Prevent SNAP updates from increasing food insecurity. This bill would amend section 3(u) of the Food and Nutrition Act to require that any re-evaluation or update of the Thrifty Food Plan not increase the number of households that lack adequate food because they lack money or other resources to buy food. It also requires that updates continue to adjust the plan's cost under the Act's existing four-part framework.

Block SNAP updates that raise hunger

USDA would not be allowed to update the Thrifty Food Plan if it increases food insecurity. SNAP benefit amounts would still be set using the existing cost-of-diet rules in the law. This could help protect SNAP households from cuts tied to future updates. "Food insecurity" here means the number of households without enough food because they lack money or other resources.
