Early Childhood Nutrition Improvement Act This bill amends the Richard B. Russell National School Lunch Act to revise several provisions related to the child and adult care food program. Under current law: (1) an institution that provides child or day care under the program may be reimbursed for up to two meals and one supplement per day per child; and (2) a family or group day care home sponsoring organization may receive the same maximum reimbursement, but only with respect to a child maintained in a child care setting for at least eight hours per day. The bill eliminates this distinction between institutions and sponsoring organizations, and increases maximum reimbursement for both to: (1) two meals and one supplement or one meal and two supplements per day per child; or (2) three meals and one supplement or two meals and two supplements per day per child, for each child maintained in a child care setting for at least eight hours per day. A determination of a for-profit day care center's eligibility to participate in the program shall be in effect for six months. The Department of Agriculture (USDA) must issue guidance and, as appropriate, regulations to assist in ensuring a fair and effective process for the identification, review, and correction of serious program deficiencies. USDA shall establish an advisory committee to examine the feasibility of reducing unnecessary or duplicative paperwork for those participating or seeking to participate in the program.

NETWORK strongly opposes Child the Nutrition and Education Act of 2016 (H.R. 5003) because it proposes to block grant key nutrition programs and does not provide adequate funding for summer meals. NETWORK strongly supports The Stop Child Summer Hunger Act of 2015 (S. 1539, H.R. 2715) & The Summer Meals Act of 2015 (S. 613, H.R. 1728) because the bills enhance efforts to expand the reach of the Summer Food Program to low-income children and significantly simplify the administration of the program for sponsors. NETWORK strongly supports The Early Childhood Nutrition Improvement Act (H.R. 3886) which expands and strengthens the Child and Adult Care Food Program (CACFP) so more children have access to nutritious meals and snacks in child care centers, family day care homes, and afterschool programs. NETWORK strongly supports The Tribal Nutrition Improvement Act of 2015 (S. 1937/H.R. 3502) which improves access to free meals for Native students who attend school on or near a reservation and allows tribal governments to administer child nutrition programs. NETWORK opposes efforts by States to time limit SNAP (food stamp) benefits for unemployed childless adults without disabilities.
