    That’s good right?

    Why would you want a bill specifically helping undocumented immigrants buy houses?

    If I’m wrong I’d like to know why.

      Certain people will be all in these comments saying it’s discriminatory or unfair this almost happened and now didn’t…it’s not.

      If you’re undocumented and even here so long and this is your life…etc. That’s one thing.

      Expecting to be rewarded for that when others are not is not going to fly with the right or left. It’s an insane proposition to begin with that focuses on a certain subject of the population, and then step further because they are not officially the population. Kind of a snub to others.

      Same. That kinda seems like it would lead to fewer people bothering to want to be a documented immigrant, right? Which, phrased a little differently, kinda incentivizes people to come in illegally or at least remain undocumented once here since that wouldn’t be a barrier to them owning a home? The right would’ve had a fucking field day if he’d signed that. They froth over straws in milkshakes; he doesn’t need to draw valid criticisms via bad policy two months before this election.
