The bill amends Title 18 of the Pennsylvania Consolidated Statutes by introducing a new section, 4122, which addresses the offense of benefit transfer device fraud. It defines the offense as occurring when an unauthorized alien possesses, uses, or attempts to use a benefit transfer device, specifically the Pennsylvania ACCESS card or electronic benefit transfer card. Each instance of possession or use constitutes a separate offense, and violations are classified as a felony of the third degree.

Additionally, the bill provides definitions for key terms, including "benefit transfer device" and "unauthorized alien," the latter referring to individuals not eligible for state or local benefits under federal law. The act is set to take effect 60 days after its passage.
