No significant fiscal implication to the State is anticipated.

Bill Analysis

HB 1218 would require the Executive Commissioner of the Health and Human Service Commission to establish a schedule for the distribution of benefits for the Supplemental Nutrition Assistance Program (SNAP). This schedule would include monitoring the even distribution of benefits each month, which would cover a 28-day period.

Vote Recommendation Notes

This bill neither hinders nor advances our liberty principles, therefore, Texas Action remains neutral on HB 1218.
