Life & Work

Undocumented immigrants would be completely barred from receiving any federal housing or community development assistance. Beyond the direct ban, the bill would also cut off funding to any organization or government that provides them housing help, reducing the safety net even from non-federal sources that rely on federal grants.

no amount from a grant under section 106 made in fiscal year 2024 or any succeeding fiscal year may be used to assist persons who are neither a national of the United States nor lawfully admitted for permanent residence
