The purpose of the SNAP Data Transparency and Oversight Act of 2026 is to improve the oversight and integrity of the Supplemental Nutrition Assistance Program (SNAP), which provides food assistance to low-income individuals and families. This legislation aims to ensure that the Secretary of Agriculture has access to detailed data about program recipients when needed. Key provisions of the Act require state agencies to provide specific data about SNAP recipients to the Secretary of Agriculture upon request. This includes case file information and any other necessary program data.
