Nutrition Administration Assistance Act of 2026

S 3594, the Nutrition Administration Assistance Act of 2026, provides additional federal funding to help state agencies cover administrative costs for three nutrition programs. It allocates 70% of the new funds to the Commodity Supplemental Food Program (CSFP), 20% to the Emergency Food Assistance Program (TEFAP), and 10% to the Senior Farmers’ Market Nutrition Program (SFMNP). The bill authorizes $1 million annually from fiscal years 2026 through 2030 specifically for these state-level administrative expenses. This directly affects state agencies managing these programs, ensuring they have dedicated resources to operate efficiently.
