Rule vote to H.R.3962

Senate Finance Committee Chair Max Baucus' health care markup included language that would require citizenship verification before individuals could gain access to the health care exchange and use federally funded affordability credits. But Ranking Member Chuck Grassley is not convinced that the proposal does enough.

In a statement issued by Sen. Grassley on Tuesday night, he said:

There are still some serious outstanding issues that have yet to be resolved like ... the enforcement against subsidies for illegal aliens.

-- Sen. Grassley

The markup issued by Sen. Baucus says that anyone wishing to receive affordability credits must provide their name, social security number and date of birth so it can be verified using data from the Social Security Administration and Department of Homeland Security. It also says that illegal aliens will not be counted when determining household size for individuals being considered for health care affordability credits.

The Chairman's markup, however, does not say who will enforce the verification process.

For more information, see Sen. Baucus' markup and the release from Sen. Grassley.
