HR 6390

This bill, the Make Housing Affordable and Defend Democracy Act, seeks to address housing affordability and bolster democracy by rescinding significant amounts of funds allocated for immigration enforcement and border security. Specifically, it permanently rescinds funds intended for Department of Defense operations, border infrastructure, Customs and Border Protection personnel and resources, and detention capacity. The bill also introduces a new first-time homebuyer tax credit, with potential increases for first-generation homebuyers and those in high-cost areas. Finally, it repeals certain immigration fees and a reimbursement fund.
