The Food Policy Council Procurement Amendment Act of 2026 amends the Food Policy Council and Director Establishment Act of 2014 by changing the frequency of the Food Policy Council's annual report from annually to triennially, starting September 30, 2027. The bill also expands the Council's authority to evaluate food procurement practices for District agencies and contractors that regularly purchase food and beverages, defining "covered agency" to include those entities while excluding those that procure food solely for vending machines or one-off catering services.

Additionally, the bill introduces new responsibilities for the Food Policy Council, including overseeing efforts to improve the quality of food purchased by covered agencies and ensuring alignment with District standards regarding nutrition, local economy, and environmental sustainability. It mandates that covered agencies collaborate with the Office of Contracting and Procurement to enhance food service solicitations and requires them to provide necessary data for tracking compliance with food procurement goals.
