Secretary Rollins and Secretary Kennedy to Announce SNAP Updates

Published | Video Starts at 19:09

In short, the current standards that currently have governed over the last number of years, they only require our retailers, almost 250,000 retailers across the country, to stock the very minimum of healthy foods. Well, that changes under this administration. Today we are sending out and ensuring that all those retailers know that we have a call to action that no longer, if you accept SNAP dollars, will jelly count as a fruit, will jerky count as a protein. That starting almost immediately, they have to stop stock more than double the healthy options that they're currently being required to stock. (19:09–19:29)
