## Summary

**Creates a time-limited HUD grant program to reimburse seven named States for costs and damages from federal immigration enforcement operations.** It would fund the program by transferring $139.6 billion from funds previously allocated to U.S. Immigration and Customs Enforcement and U.S. Customs and Border Protection. - Would limit eligibility to seven named States: Minnesota (Operation Metro Surge), California, Illinois (Operation Midway Blitz), Louisiana (Operation Swamp Sweep and Catahoula Crunch), Maine (Operation Catch of the Day), North Carolina (Operation Charlottes Web), and Oregon (Operation Black Rose). Grants would address lost economic activity, local government costs, and community harm. - States could transfer funds to small businesses. Organizations exempt under the Internal Revenue Code (501(c)(3)) could get grants to support schools, health providers including psychosocial care, local government operations, and commissions for inquiry, investigation, and memorialization. - HUD's Office of Inspector General would oversee the program. The Government Accountability Office must report within 30 days on total costs to each named State, and the program would end three years after it starts. *This bill would reallocate $139.6 billion from funds previously set for ICE and CBP to HUD to run a three-year grant program.*
