In yet another misguided attempt to push the progressive agenda, California is one step closer to offering interest-free home mortgage loans to illegal immigrants through Assembly Bill 1840. Introduced by Democrat Assemblymember Joaquin Arambula, this bill extends the “Dream For All” homebuyer loan program to those who are in the country illegally, providing them with a 20% loan for a home purchase—without any monthly payments or interest.
This is a clear example of how far California’s leadership has strayed from the priorities of its own citizens. At a time when hardworking Americans are struggling with high interest rates and rising home prices, the state is prioritizing those who have broken the law to enter the country. Rather than focusing on making homeownership more accessible for its legal residents, California seems determined to reward illegal behavior.
What makes this even more troubling is that the bill passed a key Senate committee with a party-line vote, bringing it one step closer to becoming law. This means that soon, illegal immigrants in California may have access to an interest-free loan with zero down payment, while legal residents are left to bear the full weight of financial burdens in one of the most expensive housing markets in the country.
It’s time for California’s leaders to wake up and start putting their own citizens first. Rewarding illegal immigration with interest-free loans is not just unfair—it’s a slap in the face to every law-abiding American struggling to achieve the dream of homeownership.
