Former House Speaker Nancy Pelosi, D-Calif., offered praise to a controversial bill advancing in her home state during her appearance on "Real Time with Bill Maher."
There is no metric by which I could be called a “conservative”, and yeah, fuck this. There is no assistance that should be given to undocumented migrants before it’s given to literally everyone else first.
That’s the danger of just reading headlines, especially tripe posted from Fox News on a community like this. The issue is the bill includes undocumented immigrants. It’s not exclusively for them.
Why does it include undocumented immigrants when there are literally millions of citizens who have worked and paid taxes their entire life who can’t afford a home.
This isn’t a new program and if you live in California and are not a migrant, you could have applied since the program started in 2016. This just adds the stipulation that migrant status should not disqualify an applicant.

Do we have any non shitty source for that? Because I’ve seen the right’s take pop up multiple times with zero rebuttal.
There is the bill itself: https://leginfo.legislature.ca.gov/faces/billTextClient.xhtml?bill_id=202320240AB1840

Thanks! And yeah, this is good policy all around, especially with how outrageously expensive homes in California are.
