Didn’t we read about this several weeks ago? What’s taking so long?
According to Section 214 of the Housing and Community Development Act, first passed into law in 1980, most non-citizens were prohibited from applying for and obtaining federal financial housing assistance.
But there are always loopholes!
By virtue of “mixed family” households that include both citizens or eligible non-citizens as well as ineligible illegal aliens, the prohibition has been skirted by some. Consequently, there are illegal aliens that inappropriately receive federal housing subsidies.
Why can’t Congress pass laws with meaning? And why do bureaucrats always have to mess things up with their interpretation of the laws?
