Johnson will push SNAP benefits to ban soda and candy if elected to South Dakota Governor

Congressman Dustry Johnson (R-S.D.)

Congressman Dusty Johnson says soda and candy purchases should be banned from the SNAP nutrition program. If elected Governor next year, Johnson says he’ll push for the ban in South Dakota. Similar moves have been denied in the past, but the Trump Administration is encouraging states to seek waivers to ban junk foods from the program.
