California close to approving $150K loans for illegal immigrants to help purchase homes
Illegal migrants could receive up to $150K under the 'California Dream for All' plan
Lawmakers in California could soon make the Golden State the first in the country to make undocumented immigrants eligible for up to $150,000 in state-supported home loans.
The Democratic supermajority in the California state legislature is likely to pass a measure this week that would make undocumented immigrants eligible for the "California Dream for All" loan program, a state-funded program that provides 20% in down payment assistance up to $150,000, according to a report for Politico.
Participants in the program must be first-time homebuyers, and at least one must be a first-generation homebuyer, while income levels must be below certain limits depending on the county where the recipient lives.
However, Democratic lawmakers in the state have defended the legislation, arguing that it is simply designed to give undocumented state residents the same benefits afforded to everyone else in the state.
