Bridge to Summer Nutrition Act of 2025

This bill aims to reduce the administrative costs incurred by states for operating two key nutrition assistance programs: the Supplemental Nutrition Assistance Program (SNAP) and the Summer Electronic Benefits Transfer (EBT) program for children . It seeks to provide financial relief to states by increasing the federal contribution towards these expenses. Under the proposed legislation, for every fiscal year a state operates the Summer EBT program, the Secretary of Agriculture would be mandated to reimburse that state for 90 percent of its monthly administrative costs . This increased federal payment would cover administrative expenses for both the Summer EBT program and the Supplemental Nutrition Assistance Program. The measure intends to support states in efficiently managing and delivering these essential food security benefits.
