The main purpose of this legislation is to strengthen the enforcement of the Food and Nutrition Act of 2008 by lowering the financial threshold for criminal penalties related to violations of the Act. This is intended to address and deter fraud within the Supplemental Nutrition Assistance Program (SNAP), which provides food assistance to low-income individuals and families. The key provision of this legislation is the amendment to the existing law that reduces the amount of money involved in a violation from $5,000 to ,000.
