The Preserving Community Food Assistance Act of 2026 amends the Food Emergency Assistance Act of 1983 to allow community food assistance providers to request identification from recipients, at their discretion. This change is based on documented proof of residency, such as a photo identification card, a piece of mail, residency documentation, or other similar documents. The bill aims to provide flexibility to state agencies in managing food assistance programs.
