The California governor explained he couldn't sign the bill because of concerns over the limited funding for the home loan assistance program.
In a letter to the State Assembly Friday, Newsom said he was returned to AB 1840 without his signature, explaining the already limited funding for the program.“This bill seeks to prohibit the disqualification of applicants from one of California Housing Finance Agency’s home purchase assistance programs based solely on their immigration status,” the governor said in the signed letter.
“Undocumented individuals have historically been removed from housing initiatives because of federal restrictions,” Arambulo said. “Ensuring universal access by all borrowers will contribute to the overall success and vitality of California.”“For every dollar going to an illegal immigrant, that’s a dollar that isn’t going to a veteran or a legal California citizen that also qualify,” State Senator Brian Jones, the GOP Minority Leader, said.
