HR 10222: No HUD Funding for Sanctuary Cities Act

This bill would prohibit any state or local government designated as a "sanctuary jurisdiction" from receiving grant funds distributed by the Department of Housing and Urban Development (HUD). A jurisdiction is defined as a sanctuary if it has laws, policies, or practices that restrict officials from sharing information about an individual's immigration status or from complying with federal requests to detain or notify about the release of individuals. The funding restriction would apply to grants distributed 180 days after the bill's enactment. To determine which jurisdictions qualify for this ineligibility, the HUD Secretary is required to consult with the Secretary of Homeland Security.

S 5259: End Housing Welfare for Illegal Aliens Act

The End Housing Welfare for Illegal Aliens Act would prohibit states and local governments designated as "sanctuary jurisdictions" from receiving Community Development Block Grants, defining such jurisdictions as those that restrict information sharing or compliance with federal immigration detainers. The bill also codifies a "mixed-status" rule that prevents housing assistance programs from providing prorated benefits to households where some members are ineligible, requiring full eligibility verification for all family members before any funds are distributed. Additionally, it mandates that public housing agencies affirmatively verify the citizenship status of applicants and expands the scope of these restrictions to include specific federal housing programs like Section 811 and Section 202.
