Congressman Matt Rosendale (R-MT) recently introduced the Ensuring Health in SNAP Act of 2024. This bill proposes to empower states with the authority to ban the use of Supplemental Nutrition Assistance Program (SNAP) benefits for purchasing soft drinks, candy, ice cream, and prepared desserts such as cakes, pies, and cookies. This is a modest but important step in combatting the epidemic of chronic diseases that plagues this country. This initiative is not just about regulating food choices; it's about promoting a healthier, more nutrient-rich diet for all Americans.
