Trump Admin updates Section 8 Housing to end ‘taxpayer-funded vacations’ for illegal aliens

Public housing agencies across the country are being asked to share the personal information of tenants receiving rental assistance under Section 8 with the U.S. Department of Housing and Urban Development (HUD), as federal authorities target immigrant families served by the program.

The move, according to HUD Secretary Scott Turner, will help make sure that what he called “illegal aliens”—foreign-born individuals without legal authorization or permission to stay in the U.S.—would not receive rental help over American citizens.

“D.C. Housing Authority is on notice—we are demanding all citizenship information for residents,” Turner wrote on X last weekend. “We are telling the same to the more than 3,000 Public Housing Authorities across the country. The taxpayer-funded vacation is over.”
