Utah

2026

This bill requires Utah agencies to verify immigration status for all adults applying for state or local benefits—including immunizations and communicable disease testing. Those who cannot prove lawful status are denied these services. False claims face penalties. Public employees who skip checks can be charged, sued, or removed. Agencies must keep records, report denials, conduct audits, and state auditors may review compliance. The bill also ends an alternative CHIP (Children’s Health Insurance Program) eligibility option two years earlier.
