Halting Federal Housing Funds for Undocumented Immigrants Until All Veterans Are Housed.

This bill prohibits the use of federal funds to provide or subsidize housing for individuals unlawfully present in the United States. This limitation remains in effect until the Secretary of Veterans Affairs determines that sufficient resources exist to provide housing assistance to all homeless veterans. Citizens should note that this legislation prioritizes housing support for veterans over undocumented immigrants in the allocation of federal housing resources.
Key points
Federal funds cannot be used to subsidize housing for individuals unlawfully present in the U.S.
The restriction is lifted only after the Secretary of Veterans Affairs confirms that all homeless veterans have sufficient housing assistance.
Exclusions apply to individuals in the custody of the Department of Homeland Security or incarcerated in federal or federally funded facilities.
