H.R.3506

Reauthorizes the Healthy Food Financing Initiative to support access to healthy food in underserved areas.

The Healthy Food Financing Initiative Reauthorization Act of 2025 amends the Department of Agriculture Reorganization Act of 1994 to reauthorize the Healthy Food Financing Initiative. This initiative provides funding to support the development of grocery stores and other food retailers in underserved areas. The bill allocates specific funding amounts for fiscal years 2026 through 2030, with a gradual increase from $25 million to $50 million annually thereafter. The initiative aims to improve access to healthy food options in communities that currently lack sufficient grocery stores.
