Nebraska Attorney General Jon Bruning’s refusal to handle housing discrimination cases in which the person complaining is an illegal immigrant is unusual, perhaps unique.

“I am not aware of any other attorney general who has raised that issue,â€

Thirty-seven states have contracts with HUD, which pays the states to handle housing discrimination complaints. Until recently, Nebraska was among those states.

Kansas, South Dakota and Wyoming are among 13 that don’t contract with HUD for housing cases, so the federal government handles the investigations

Maybe the federal gov,. should handle ALL of the cases.

Since it's against the law for an illegal alien to work in the US, it's a given that they are violating MORE federal laws to even rent! Where would they get the money to PAY for rent if they had no job???

It's not a crime for states to require proof of legal status! START ASKING FOR IT!

But the attorney general says he is following another federal law that says illegal immigrants are not eligible for non-emergency state or local public benefits.

Sounds cut and dry to me.
