| New Trump Rule Threatens Immigrant Families With Separation or Homelessness The Trump administration is preparing to kick nearly 80,000 people, about half of them children, off federal housing assistance over their family's immigration status, threatening to drive thousands into homelessness. On Thursday, the Department of Housing and Urban Development published a final rule that's on track to effectively bar families of mixed immigration status from receiving most federal housing assistance, which allow people to receive housing vouchers to reside in privately owned rental homes or in government-owned or -assisted public housing units. |
