What it does
The No Welfare for Non-Citizens Act would prohibit non-citizens from receiving any federal public benefits by amending the Personal Responsibility and Work Opportunity Reconciliation Act of 1996 to make all aliens ineligible for such benefits, regardless of their immigration status. It would repeal existing provisions that allow certain qualified aliens limited access to federal programs and expand the definition of federal public benefits to include cash assistance. The bill affects all non-citizens residing in the United States, eliminating their eligibility for federal assistance programs such as unemployment benefits, cash aid, and other federally funded support.
