We cannot begin to afford the new housing units necessary to assist 40 percent of our population. While our own demand escalates. HUD has failed to respond to a growing problemthat of illegal aliens and aliens here on temporary visas obtaining assisted housing. that is to say subsidized housing. while U.S. citizens and permanent U.S. residents wait in lines. HUD has stated that it has no authority to require proof of citizenship or permanent resident status. Some local housing authorities say they attempt to report illegal aliens to the Immigration and Naturalization Services. but have no firm policy in that regard. In fact. HUD regulations prohibit local residency requirements and discourage the application of any sort of residency preference.
