Requires that recipients of public assistance benefits must be residents of the state for at least ninety days prior to applying for such benefits

This bill requires individuals applying for public assistance benefits (such as food stamps or cash aid) to have lived in the state for at least 90 days prior to their application. It directly affects new residents seeking state-funded support programs. The key provision adds a new requirement to the social services law, stating that no public assistance can be granted to applicants who do not meet this 90-day residency period. The law takes effect January 1 following its passage.
