No HUD Funding for Sanctuary Cities Act

This bill would make sanctuary jurisdictions ineligible for any grant funds that the Secretary of Housing and Urban Development (HUD) distributes for use in those places. A sanctuary jurisdiction is defined as a state or local government with a law, policy, or practice that limits officials from sharing information about a person's citizenship or immigration status, or from complying with federal immigration detainer or release-notification requests. The rule would apply to grant funds distributed starting 180 days after the bill becomes law. HUD would consult with the Department of Homeland Security to decide which jurisdictions count as sanctuary jurisdictions.
