Senate Bill 1010 mandates that the Department of Health Services (DHS) in Wisconsin must compile and provide specific data related to the food stamp program, also known as the Supplemental Nutrition Assistance Program (SNAP) or FoodShare in the state, to the U.S. Department of Agriculture. This requirement must be fulfilled within six months of the bill becoming law and is based on a directive from the federal Department of Agriculture outlined in a letter dated July 23, 2025. The data to be shared includes information about individuals who have received, are currently receiving, or have applied for food stamp benefits since January 1, 2020.

The bill emphasizes the collaboration between state and federal governments in administering the food stamp program, where the federal government covers the benefits while both levels of government share the administrative costs. This legislative action is part of a broader effort to ensure compliance with federal requirements and improve the management of food assistance programs in Wisconsin.
