Chamber of Origin: HouseThis bill requires Wisconsin’s Department of Health Services to ask the federal government for permission to stop FoodShare benefits from being used to buy candy or soft drinks. If approved, this change would help ensure that public assistance supports healthier food choices for low-income families. The department must keep reapplying each year until permission is granted.
