The bill seeks to reduce bureaucratic hurdles for access to food assistance.

Rep. Riley stated, “Folks who worked hard their whole lives shouldn’t have to haul around shoeboxes of receipts or fight through stacks of forms just to put food on the table.” Key provisions include extending certification periods for SNAP and creating a standardized medical deduction.
