Adding Multivitamins To SNAP Sprouts Or Wilts In Congress' Decision On Farm Bill
House appoints its farm bill conference committee members primarily from Agriculture Committee but also with reps from committees with oversight for a variety of topics due to the breadth of the legislation and to contentious issues unrelated to including supplements as SNAP, or food stamp, benefits. Supplement industry also looks to fate of legislation that would allow using pre-tax health savings accounts to buy OTC drugs without having a doctor's prescription as a sign for whether VMS product purchases will be allowed with the accounts, as proposed in House and Senate bills.
