"Wisconsin Program Helps Illegal Aliens Get Mortgages"

Fox News reports on Antonio Riley of the WHEDA ("Wisconsin Housing and Economic Development Authority") and his scheme to give home loans to illegal aliens:

...[Republican state Sen. Glenn Grothman] said he wants essentially to eliminate the I-TIN mortgages and has proposed that Social Security numbers be required for state loans.

He said that even though he believes the vast majority of Wisconsin is with him on this, he's not sure his own party is.

"If my legislation doesn't pass, it shows a high degree of cowardice on the part of the Republican leadership of the state of Wisconsin," Grothman said.

Wisconsin GOP leaders say they do not fear Hispanic voter backlash getting in the way of Grothman's legislation, but that the party has other priorities, like election law reform, that needs to be completed first.
