A Texas town may offer a preview of a Trump plan to force noncitizens from public housing

A bungled message from the Port Isabel Housing Authority in Texas about a Trump administration proposal to end housing assistance for families with undocumented members caused mass panic and exodus, with occupancy rates plummeting from 91% to 43% in four months. The proposed HUD rule would affect up to 80,000 people nationwide, including U.S. citizens and children, though it has not yet been finalized. The incident provides a preview of potential impacts if the policy is implemented across the country.
