California lawmakers passed a bill allowing illegal immigrants to apply for the “California Dream for All” first-time homebuyers’ financial assistance program. AB 1840 requires the program to include undocumented applicants, despite running out of funds in just 11 days after its initiation in June.
The program offers up to $150,000 as down payment assistance, with the bill now heading back to the state Assembly for revisions before reaching Governor Gavin Newsom’s desk for final approval.
Democrats supported the bill, emphasizing that undocumented immigrants must pay taxes and show proof of work, while Republicans raised concerns about potential exclusion of groups like veterans from the program.
The program’s future funding remains uncertain, pending approval from the governor and state legislatures. The California state’s legislative session ends on Saturday, with no funds allocated for the program in the current budget.
