This concurrent resolution expresses South Dakota's support for the U.S. Department of Agriculture to create a group of nutrition experts who would set national standards for what foods and beverages people can buy with SNAP benefits (food stamps). The resolution does not change South Dakota state law itself, but rather urges the federal government to update SNAP purchasing rules to align with current nutrition science and ensure consistency across all states.
