House Lawmakers voted on July 19 to pass a bill banning public K-12 school facilities from being used to provide shelter for immigrants who entered into the United States illegally.

H.R. 3941, also known as the “Schools Not Shelters Act,” was introduced earlier this month by Rep. Marc Molinaro (R-N.Y.) in an attempt to prevent New York Governor Kathy Hochul from housing immigrants in SUNY college dorms or K-12 schools in Upstate New York.
