House passes amendment allowing SNAP benefits to be used for hot rotisserie chicken
The House voted 384-35 on Thursday to pass an amendment to the farm bill allowing hot rotisserie chicken to be purchased with SNAP benefits, reversing a long-standing rule that limited SNAP funds to uncooked foods. The amendment was introduced by Rep. Rick Crawford (R-AR) and passed with strong bipartisan support. SNAP currently serves over 41 million recipients and is authorized through the farm bill.
