HUD to close ‘mixed status households’ roommate loophole
HUD's rule would end prorated housing aid for mixed-status families, potentially evicting nearly 80,000 people, including 37,000 U.S. citizen children, according to the Center on Budget and Policy Priorities.
- The Department of Housing and Urban Development will publish the proposed rule in the Federal Register on Friday, banning families with undocumented members from subsidized housing and ending long-term prorated assistance.
- The proposal follows a prior Trump administration effort that the Biden administration withdrew, while HUD Secretary Scott Turner framed the change as stopping ineligible noncitizens exploiting public housing.
- Agency data and independent analysis show that nearly 80,000 could face eviction, including nearly 37,000 U.S. citizen children, according to the Center on Budget and Policy Priorities.
- Public Housing Authorities and private housing owners would be required to report undocumented tenants to DHS, rely on the SAVE database despite its limitations, and meet strict deadlines including a 90-day compliance window and a 30-day extension.
- Housing advocates say they will contest the proposal as housing advocates and immigrant-rights groups warn it would worsen poverty and homelessness, risking harm to U.S. citizens and immigrants.
