AB 1734 (Stefani) – Count Hunger Act
This bill creates a two-year pilot program to fill the gap left by the federal government’s elimination of the national hunger survey and defunding of the California Health Interview Survey (CHIS) food security survey conducted by UCLA. The bill will fund CHIS and expand measurement to include middle‑income families earning up to 400% of the federal poverty level. This ensures the state can track how federal policy changes — including HR 1’s proposed cuts to SNAP and nutrition education — impact of hunger across income levels, providing critical data as California advocates for restored federal research capacity.
