Title: ●SNAP: Update to TFP Price-of-Food Adjustment for Hawaii  
Abstract:

The proposed rule would update the price-of-food adjustment used to calculate the cost of the Thrifty Food Plan (TFP) for Hawaii in 7 CFR 273.10(e)(4) from an adjustment for the price of food in Honolulu to an adjustment for the price of food in the State of Hawaii. The proposed revisions would better align with the Food and Nutrition Act of 2008 (7 U.S.C. 2012(u)), which calls for the TFP to be adjusted for the cost of food in Hawaii and would enable the Department to use data that better reflects food prices throughout the State of Hawaii rather than data from Honolulu alone.
