This bill prohibits federal housing and community development grants from being used to assist people who are not U.S. citizens or lawfully admitted permanent residents. It also prevents the federal government from awarding these grants to any state, local government, or Native American tribe that operates any housing or community development program providing assistance to undocumented immigrants, even if federal funds are not directly used for that purpose. The restrictions apply to grants made starting in fiscal year 2024 and beyond under the Housing and Community Development Act of 1974. The bill effectively ties federal housing assistance funding to a requirement that recipients cease all aid to undocumented immigrants through their programs. No specific funding amounts or implementation timeline are outlined beyond the fiscal year 2024 start date.
