The Secretary must issue regulations within 2 years to ensure program integrity, consumer protections, and equitable access. The Secretary must also establish a formal process to consult with state agencies, retailers, EBT processors, and consumer advocates, using lessons learned from online purchasing between 2014 and 2025. Within 120 days, the Secretary must submit a report to the House and Senate Agriculture Committees describing the consultation process.
