The Food and Nutrition Act of 2008 is my main work of study. I am paying particular attention to section 4 and 5, where the establishment of the SNAP program is explained, and the limitations thereof. Quotes: “…eligible households within the State shall be provided an opportunity to obtain a more nutritious diet through the issuance to them of an allotment…” Food and Nutrition Act of 2008. As Amended through Public Law 113-128. Sec. 2013-2015. U.S. House of Representatives. “The benefits so received by such households shall be used only to purchase food from retail food stores which have been approved for participation in the supplemental nutrition assistance program.” Food and Nutrition Act of 2008. “In the event of distribution on all or part of an Indian reservation, the appropriate agency of the State government in the area involved shall be responsible for the distribution.” Food and Nutrition Act of 2008. “The Secretary is authorized to pay such amounts…as the Secretary finds necessary for effective administration of such distribution by a State agency or tribal organization.” Food and Nutrition Act of 2008. “The Secretary shall establish a fund for use in purchasing traditional and locally-grown foods…” Food and Nutrition Act of 2008 “Where practicable…at least 50 percent shall be produced by Native American farmers, ranchers, and producers.” Food and Nutrition Act of 2008 Clemmitt, Marcia, and Peter Katel. “Preventing Obesity.” CQ Researcher 20, no. 34 (October 1, 2010): 799-820. http://library.cqpress.com.libdb.ppcc.edu/cqresearcher/getpdf.php?id=c qresrre2010100100. This is the first of two of my CQ Researcher Articles. It deals with obesity, and how not having a nutritious diet can be a factor in American obesity today. Quotes: “Prominent among those factors are low consumption of fruits and vegetables and America's “obesogenic” environment, which promotes increased portion size, non-healthful foods and physical inactivity.” Clemmitt, Marcia, and Peter Katel. “Preventing Obesity.” CQ Researcher 20, no. 34 (October 1, 2010): 799-820. “While diet programs emphasize personal responsibility, public-health experts blame a multitude of factors — many beyond individuals' control — for the societywide epidemic.” Clemmit and Katel. “The Congressional Budget Office (CBO) reports that health care spending for all adults increased substantially over the last two decades, but that the growth rate was far faster among the obese.” Clemmit and Katel.

THESIS A thesis statement is strongly encouraged to be present in this assignment. Example of a nice thesis: Federal Law: Food Allergen Labeling and Consumer Protection Act of 2004 Thesis: Although the Food Allergen Labeling and Consumer Protection Act of 2004 (FALCPA) was successful in requiring and regulating the labeling of consumer products, for the further safety of the general public, any restaurant that holds a food handler’s permit should be required by law to list the allergen information as outlined in the FALCPA.
