Abstract

The article discusses the Summer Electronic Benefit Transfer (EBT) program, designed to aid food-insecure households by providing additional funds during the summer. Topics include the program's benefits, criticisms of states opting out (citing costs, political beliefs, and lack of faith in federal administration), and the ongoing challenges in ensuring food security for vulnerable children despite some states reversing their decisions.
