Bill Summary
A bill to prohibit the use of funds to provide benefits to refugees, asylees, and illegal immigrants.
AI Summary
This bill, titled the "End Welfare for Noncitizens Act," proposes to prohibit the use of any federal funds to provide benefits to individuals who are refugees, asylees, or who are in the United States without legal status, meaning they are present without proper authorization. Specifically, it would prevent funds from being used for programs like Temporary Assistance for Needy Families (TANF), Medicaid, and the Supplemental Nutrition Assistance Program (SNAP), as well as any other federal benefit, subsidy, or service, regardless of any existing laws that might otherwise allow for such funding. Refugees are individuals granted protection in the U.S. due to persecution in their home country, while asylees are those who have been granted similar protection after arriving in the U.S.
