Portable Benefits Access and Modernization Act

This Act directs the Secretary of Health and Human Services to establish a secure, interoperable digital portal through which eligible individuals may apply for and manage federally funded social programs, including nutrition, health, and housing assistance, while retaining in-person, telephone, and paper application options. The portal shall use privacy-protective data practices, plain-language notices, multilingual access, identity verification, and consent-based information sharing; shall not reduce eligibility or benefits; and shall require annual independent security audits, fraud controls, public performance reporting, and authorization of appropriations before implementation.
