The bill includes expanding summer meals and boosting SUN Bucks for low-income children.

Evidence

The official homepage’s latest news items dated June 1, 2026 are about unrelated matters (a court decision, a Trump settlement statement, and a local town-council ruling); no summer-meal access or SUN Bucks action appears in the lookback window.

No claim-specific official action is visible on Larson’s current House site during the last 30 days; this is an inference from the absence of relevant items among the latest posts.

Assessments

partial unknown

Verified evidence shows Larson voted for H.R. 2617 on December 23, 2022, the omnibus law that created the permanent Summer EBT program later branded as SUN Bucks, and USDA shows SUN Bucks is now available in Connecticut at $120 per eligible child. That supports some credit for backing a policy that expanded summer food assistance. But the record here does not show Larson authored or led later claim-specific action, and it does not show the promised increase in SUN Bucks benefit levels was delivered. On this evidence, the promise is only partially fulfilled.
