WASHINGTON, D.C. — U.S. Senator John Fetterman joined U.S. Senators Jim Justice, Shelley Moore Capito, and Michael Bennet in introducing the Hot Rotisserie Chicken Act to allow Supplemental Nutrition Assistance Program (or SNAP) participants to purchase hot rotisserie chicken with their benefits.
According to Senator Fetterman, “America’s best and delicious affordability play is Costco’s $4.99 rotisserie chicken.” “I’m proud to join this bill with Senator Justice for all to try. SNAP funds would be well spent to feed our nation’s families who need it.”
Senator Justice added, “Allowing folks on SNAP to buy hot rotisserie chickens is truly just commonsense. It’s as basic as you can get to help busy parents or grandparents put something as simple as this on the table to feed their families.”
