S. 4768 · 118th Congress
Nutrition Services Improvement Plan Act
Key: what the circles and colors mean
Each circle is a bill. The ring fills as it moves through Congress:
Under the number: the Yea · Nay count of its final (or latest) recorded vote. On a member's page, the small badge is how that member voted: Y Yea / Aye, N Nay / No, P Present, – Not voting.
Gold and violet are only for Yea and Nay; they never mean a party. A member's party is the letter on their photo.
Never voted on. It didn't reach a floor vote before the 118th Congress ended, so it expired. A bill has to be introduced again to be considered in a new Congress.

Nutrition Services Improvement Plan Act
This bill directs the Government Accountability Office to conduct a study to evaluate the Nutrition Services Incentive Program (NSIP), which is currently administered by the Administration on Aging. The study must assess the ability of NSIP to (1) engage and support local farms in supplying food products for nutrition services, and (2) support produce prescription programs and medically tailored meals for older individuals.
As background, NSIP provides funds to states, U.S. territories, and Indian tribal organizations to purchase food or to cover the costs of food commodities provided by the Department of Agriculture for the congregate and home-delivered nutrition programs (e.g., Meals on Wheels).
