Letter to the editor: Immigrants and housing problems
In 2021, more than 1.5 million illegal immigrants were apprehended trying to enter the United States. In 2021, 326,000 Americans, including nearly 20,000 veterans, were homeless. A lot has been reported about the U.S. housing shortage, with rising home prices and rents. My question is, how did President Biden find housing for 1.5 million illegals but none for Americans?
Maybe we should freeze all immigration until we solve the housing problem, and, once solved, increase the number of immigrants who want to come here legally to enjoy the American dream like our ancestors.
