What this bill would do

This bill is titled the ``Fresh Produce for Families Act of 2026''. It seeks to amend the Emergency Food Assistance Act of 1983. The primary goal is to allow commodities within the emergency food assistance program to be ordered through the Department of Defense Fresh Fruit and Vegetable Program. This change would occur at the request of a State agency. Under this proposal, a State agency could use a specific portion of its allocated commodity costs for these orders.
