Support HB2107
Bill Summary 
HB 2107 orders Arizona’s Department of Economic Security director to seek a federal waiver so SNAP benefits can no longer be used to buy fast food—defined as mass‑produced food designed for commercial resale with speed of service prioritized—while simultaneously allowing SNAP benefits to be used to purchase vitamins, which are currently ineligible. If USDA approves, the director must implement both changes (ban fast‑food purchases and permit vitamin purchases) and, if denied, must reapply every year until a waiver is granted.

Why It Matters to the Make America Healthy Again Movement
The MAHA Movement supports this bill because it pushes federal nutrition dollars away from fast food and toward basic micronutrient support, nudging SNAP in the direction of healthier, less ultra‑processed choices. However, MAHA also emphasizes that any fast‑food restriction must be paired with strong protections for elderly, disabled, and unhoused Arizonans who rely on prepared meals, and would urge Arizona to pair HB 2107 with MAHA‑style reforms that expand access to fresh, nutrient‑dense foods rather than simply tightening restrictions.
