Bill overview
The Health and Nutrition Access for All Act aims to expand access to healthcare and nutrition assistance programs for vulnerable populations. Specifically, it removes barriers for children, pregnant individuals, and lawfully present immigrants by amending existing laws related to Medicaid, the Children’s Health Insurance Program (CHIP), and the Supplemental Nutrition Assistance Program (SNAP). The bill ensures that immigration status is not a factor in determining eligibility for these programs, and it clarifies payment rules for Medicaid related to assistance provided to lawfully present immigrants.
