H.R. 9456, Restrictive Immigration-Linked Welfare Eligibility. Quorum's AI analysis reads it as a net cost — and names who bears it.
H.R. 9456 · Net cost
What it does
This bill restricts SNAP (food stamps) eligibility to immigrants who have been lawfully admitted as permanent residents and have lived in the U.S. for at least 10 years.
The analysis did not isolate a single beneficiary class.
The cost
U.S. citizen children in households with non-qualifying immigrant parents or relatives may lose SNAP access even though they are citizens, because SNAP eligibility is household-based and the presence of one ineligible member can affect the entire household's benefits.
The analysis put a high warning level on this bill. Transparency scores 75%; no detached riders.
