No Housing Welfare for Illegal Aliens Act
This bill, titled the No Housing Welfare for Illegal Aliens Act, restricts federal housing assistance for individuals who are not U.S. citizens or permanent residents. It requires that all family members applying for assistance must be verified as eligible before any funds are released, preventing partial payments while checks are pending. Additionally, the legislation prohibits grants to states or local governments that provide housing help to undocumented immigrants or refuse to cooperate with federal immigration enforcement requests. These measures aim to limit access to specific federal housing programs for non-citizens and condition funding on compliance with immigration detention protocols.
