Limiting Social Security and Medicare Benefits to U.S. Citizens Only
This bill introduces a major change: to receive Social Security benefits (retirement, survivors, disability), Medicare, Medicaid, and other SSA-administered benefits, an individual must be a U.S. citizen or national. This means non-citizens would not be entitled to these benefits for any month in which they do not hold such status. The act also mandates the Department of Homeland Security to notify the SSA of any change in immigration or work authorization status.
Key points
Eligibility for Social Security, Medicare, and Medicaid benefits will be restricted exclusively to U.S. citizens or nationals.
The Department of Homeland Security (DHS) must notify the Social Security Administration (SSA) within 180 days of any change in an individual's citizenship, immigration, or work authorization status.
The changes affect a wide range of benefits, including old-age, survivors, and disability insurance (OASDI), Medicare, Medicaid, and Supplemental Security Income (SSI).
