The Closing the Meal Gap Act of 2025 aims to enhance the Supplemental Nutrition Assistance Program (SNAP) by revising how benefits are calculated, ensuring that families receive sufficient support to afford nutritious food. The act mandates that SNAP benefits be based on the "low-cost food plan," which reflects dietary guidelines for a typical four-person family and will be regularly updated to align with current food prices and dietary needs. Additionally, the act increases the percentage used in benefit calculations from 8% to 10%, providing families with greater financial assistance.
