## Summary

**Restricts federally backed mortgage support to United States citizens.** This bill limits FHA mortgage insurance and Fannie Mae and Freddie Mac purchases so that a mortgagor must be a United States citizen to qualify for those programs. - Non-citizen homebuyers: Non-citizens would be excluded from FHA-insured loans and from mortgages purchased by Fannie Mae and Freddie Mac for one- to four-family dwellings. This effectively removes two common federal channels of mortgage support for non-citizen borrowers. - Lenders and the secondary market: Fannie Mae and Freddie Mac are barred from buying conventional mortgages secured by one- to four-family properties when the mortgagor is not a U.S. citizen, which narrows the pool of loans those agencies can purchase. - Program operations: FHA, Fannie Mae, and Freddie Mac would need to verify mortgagor citizenship to apply eligibility rules. The text adds no new funding, enforcement procedures, or phase-in rules.
