The Trump administration's recent memorandum encourages the sharing of data between the U.S. Department of Housing and Urban Development (HUD) and the Department of Homeland Security (DHS) to target undocumented immigrants in federally subsidized housing. While undocumented individuals can't directly receive federal housing aid, they may still reside in households that qualify, with support prorated based on eligibility. Local agencies are unsure how this new policy will align with existing sanctuary laws, sparking concerns about its potential impact on immigrant communities.
"By working more closely together and with greater collaboration, we will identify illegal aliens who are ineligible for Federal housing assistance and take remedial measures to end this waste and abuse, including referral for immigration enforcement actions."
