To amend the Housing and Community Development Act of 1980 and the Housing Act of 1949 to make financial assistance available to DACA recipients, and for other purposes.

Bill 118 hr 10558, also known as the DACA Housing Assistance Act, aims to amend the Housing and Community Development Act of 1980 and the Housing Act of 1949 to provide financial assistance to recipients of the Deferred Action for Childhood Arrivals (DACA) program. The bill seeks to address the housing needs of DACA recipients, who are often ineligible for federal housing assistance due to their immigration status.

If passed, the bill would allow DACA recipients to access financial assistance for housing through existing federal programs. This assistance could include rental assistance, down payment assistance for home purchases, and other forms of support to help DACA recipients secure stable and affordable housing.

The bill also includes provisions to ensure that DACA recipients are not discriminated against in the housing market based on their immigration status. It aims to provide equal access to housing opportunities for DACA recipients, who are often vulnerable to housing insecurity due to their uncertain immigration status. Overall, the DACA Housing Assistance Act seeks to address the unique housing challenges faced by DACA recipients and provide them with the support they need to access safe and affordable housing. By amending existing housing laws to include DACA recipients, the bill aims to promote inclusivity and equality in the housing market for all individuals, regardless of their immigration status.
