    Default Iowa Republicans want to ban SNAP recipients from buying meat, white bread,

    Iowa Republicans proposed a bill that would drastically limit what foods SNAP recipients can buy.
    People wouldn't be able to buy grocery staples like white bread, American cheese, fresh meat, and more.
    Critics argue the bill would further burden low-income people who are already food-insecure.
    Iowa Republicans are proposing sweeping changes to the state's food assistance program — including banning beneficiaries from buying grocery staples like meat, American cheese, or flour.


    SNAP recipients wouldn't be able to buy a variety of foods, including white grain bread, buns with added nuts or seeds, white rice, pasta sauce, canned fruits or soups, baked beans, cheese slices, butter, or flour.
