What this bill would do

This bill, titled the "Feed Hungry Veterans Act of 2025," seeks to amend the Food and Nutrition Act of 2008. The primary purpose is to expand the eligibility of disabled veterans to receive supplemental nutrition assistance program benefits. It updates the requirements for service-connected disabilities and includes specific provisions for those catastrophically disabled or receiving certain pensions under age 65. These changes would amend section 3(j)(4) and section 6(d)(2) of the existing law. The amendments are scheduled to take effect on October 1, 2030.
