Under existing law, The Department of Human Resources receives funds for the administration of the food stamp program in an amount equal to 5% of the value of food stamp benefits issued statewide. In order to comply with the provisions set forth in the One Big Beautiful Act, this bill would increase that amount of 7.5%.
