HUD grant ban for sanctuary places
This bill would stop HUD from giving any grant money to places the federal government calls "sanctuary jurisdictions." The ban would apply to HUD grant funds distributed on or after 180 days after enactment. A "sanctuary jurisdiction" would mean a state or local government that either blocks sharing a person’s citizenship or immigration status or prevents complying with a lawful Homeland Security detainer or release-notice request under INA sections 236 or 287. The HUD Secretary would have to consult with the Secretary of Homeland Security to decide which places meet that definition. If enacted, low-income renters and people who use HUD-funded housing, homelessness, or community development programs in those places would risk losing that help.
