Trump’s Immigration Crackdowns Raise Eviction Risks in California

CALIFORNIA, JUL 30 – Trump administration's data sharing with ICE and cuts to public benefits increase eviction risk for undocumented renters, with 67% facing rent burdens, experts say.

  • This year, President Donald Trump’s intensified immigration crackdown leaves undocumented immigrant renters in California vulnerable to eviction, exploitation, and potential homelessness.
  • The Trump administration announced that HHS, IRS, and HUD have agreed to share residents’ personal data with ICE, discouraging many immigrants from exercising their tenant rights.
  • According to the California Immigrant Data Portal, research indicates two-thirds of undocumented renters in California were rent-burdened in 2021, paying over 30% of income in rent.
  • Legal aid programs report attendance at tenants’ rights workshops in the Central Valley, California region has declined as immigrants fear ICE targeting, deterring court appearances.
  • Potential reductions in benefits threaten immigrant families' access to early childhood education, health care, and housing programs, risking broader economic repercussions, advocates warn.
