This policy memo provides instruction to select states regarding the implementation of changes to Supplemental Nutrition Assistance Program eligibility for aliens in Section 10108 of PL 119-21, the One Big Beautiful Bill Act of 2025, in the wake of preliminary relief granted in State of New York, et al. v. Rollins, et al., 6:25-cv02185 (D. Or.).

The Immigration and Naturalization Service  confirms that use of WIC benefits does not render an alien a public charge, that benefits should not be denied to aliens who have used WIC, and that INS should not request that aliens repay any WIC benefits received.
