Guaranteed Income Pilot Program: Monthly Cash Payments and Study on Financial Stability.

This Act establishes a three-year pilot program providing a guaranteed monthly income to 20,000 selected individuals aged 18-65. 10,000 participants will receive a monthly cash payment equivalent to the fair market rent for a two-bedroom home in their area. Crucially, these payments will not count as income or resources for 12 months when determining eligibility for other federal assistance programs, allowing researchers to study the impact of financial stability on daily life.
