SNAP eligibility for households with ineligible or illegal immigrants - proposed regulation change
 

I am wholeheartedly in favor of the regulation change.  Under current regulations, households with ineligible or illegal immigrants are likely to receive more SNAP benefits than citizen households with the same income, expenses and number of persons in the home.  This change is needed to equalize access to food security for our citizens in Virginia.
