Allows SNAP benefits to be used for on-campus meals at institutions of higher education.

This bill amends the Food and Nutrition Act of 2008 to permit the use of supplemental nutrition assistance program (SNAP) benefits for purchasing on-campus meals at institutions of higher education. It prohibits using these benefits for prepaying meal plans, adding value to dining accounts, paying outstanding balances, or covering non-food charges. The bill also mandates a study on the use of SNAP benefits for on-campus meals, including the number of participating institutions, redemption patterns, and food insecurity rates among college students.
