re: #260 subsailor68

Hi Walter! Skimming the “eligibility requirements” areas now. Does look like Pelosi managed to keep the prohibition of funding for illegals out of this version, as was her goal. Wonder how CBO will be able to score the cost of that - given that nobody seems to know how many are actually here.

Try looking at Section 341, a whole section on verifying citizenship starting on page 228.

3 (B) DECLARATION OF CITIZENSHIP OR
4 LAWFUL IMMIGRATION STATUS.—No individual
5 shall be an affordable credit eligible individual
6 unless there has been a declaration made, in a
7 form and manner specified by the Health
8 Choices Commissioner similar to the manner re9
quired under section 1137(d)(1) of the Social
10 Security Act and under penalty of perjury, that
11 the individual—
12 (i) is a citizen or national of the
13 United States; or
14 (ii) is not such a citizen or national
15 but is lawfully present in a State in the
16 United States (other than as a non17
immigrant described in a subparagraph
18 (excluding subparagraphs (K), (T), (U),
19 and (V)) of section 101(a)(15) of the Im20
migration and Nationality Act).

This does look like verification of citizenship language.
