I approved this BAN! Its definitely needed! SNAP should not be for any form of unhealthy junk foods! No soda, cookies, cakes, chips, dips, candies, ice creams, none of that!!!!

If it's such a good idea and saves money why not just ban sugary sodas altogether so everyone benefits and poor people on public assistance won't need to be singled out for inspection at the checkout lane. Win-win.

Because that will make life affordable for Texans. Get serious, for once in legislation 🙄

The parents use SNAP. It’s not just for kids, so they are saying grown adults cannot drink soda? Again stupidity has no bounds.

I don’t care if the poor drink sugary drinks, what that’s just for the privileged now.

In 1935 is the year self-reliance, community charity, and individualism ended in America. Ninety years later, “having a pop is my right AND you’re going to pay for it.” If one wants smaller government, then eliminate government welfare.

No government should give its citizens money that can be used to purchase junk food. That's pretty much the same thing as funding the declining health of the citizens.

Sugary drinks have a lot of carbs which can help a lot when you have nothing to eat. 🤷‍♂️ You can't expect poor people to fill up on water

Make employment and citizenship a requirement for SNAP for all able bodied recipients

Sounds good. I’d be fine with government welfare going away completely, but they DEFINITELY should only cover basic life supporting things.

The same folks complaining about this are the same ones who complain about why our healthcare is trash as if sodas and these other trash drinks don't contribute to yalls misery
