Requires SNAP retailers to display information on how to protect SNAP recipients from fraud used to steal benefits.
This bill requires New Jersey SNAP retailers to display informational posters that teach recipients how to protect themselves from fraud and theft of their benefits. The Department of Human Services must provide these signs to all authorized stores, with specific guidance on securing electronic benefit cards, such as how to lock and unlock them. Retailers must place the materials in a prominent, easily accessible area where SNAP recipients frequently visit. The law also directs the state to create rules for implementing these requirements and takes effect immediately.
