Fact Check: Is the 21st Century ROAD to Housing Act mainly for people in the U.S. illegally?

Media Bias Fact Check (MBFC) publishes daily vetted fact checks from verified IFCN-approved sources. Each claim is independently reviewed for accuracy and context.


Claimant: Tommy Tuberville (R)


Claim: Benefits of the 21st Century ROAD to Housing Act are “going to go to a lot of people that are here illegally to build houses for them.”


Rating: FALSE


Explanation: The bill does not mention immigrants in the U.S. illegally or change federal housing assistance barriers for that population. Its main purpose is to expand affordable housing supply, which could benefit renters and homebuyers broadly, including U.S. citizens and legal permanent residents.
