AI Summary

This bill prohibits the Oregon Housing and Community Services Department (OHCS) from using its program funds to provide direct assistance to individuals who are not legally present in the United States. Specifically, the bill prevents the department, qualified housing sponsors, and fund recipients from offering rental assistance, housing, housing subsidies, loans, or tax credits to unauthorized noncitizens under programs authorized by Oregon Revised Statutes (ORS) 456.515 to 456.725 and ORS chapter 458. The legislation effectively bars state housing assistance for immigrants without legal documentation, aiming to restrict access to housing benefits for those who are not lawfully admitted to or present in the country. By adding this provision to existing housing law, the bill seeks to limit the use of state housing resources to only those with legal immigration status.
