Plain-English Summary

The legislation would provide emergency funding and support to food banks across the country to help them meet increased demand for food assistance. Food banks, which distribute groceries to people struggling with hunger, would receive resources to expand their operations, purchase more food, and improve their ability to serve their communities. This would directly help low-income families, seniors, and others facing food insecurity access the meals they need.
