how do illegal immigrants get housing? Don't you need to provide identification to rent and apt?

Question

I'm just curious as to how they do this, they live here illegally. I thought you needed to provide information such as id and stuff.

Which leads me to another question, how do they get fake identification.

Answer 1

You would think asking for ID would be a deterrent but now illegals have the ACLU on their side. So nice of the American Civil Liberties Union to sue Americans in favor of non-Americans....

ACLU Sues Texas Town for Not Renting to Illegals
Civil Rights Groups Sue Over Rent Law

Tuesday Dec 26 | The Associated Press on Topix.net

Two civil rights groups filed a lawsuit Tuesday challenging a new law in a Dallas suburb that outlaws renting apartments to illegal immigrants, alleging the ordinance violates federal law and forces landlords to act as immigration officers.

The American Civil Liberties Union and the Mexican American Legal Defense and Education Fund filed the suit on behalf of residents and landlords in Farmers Branch, just north of Dallas.

Answer 2

Sounds like this would be a good law to enact. There must be some privacy issues. About the ID people will do anything for money. A drivers license in most states can be obtained with a bill from the residence in your name and a birth certificate. We make it easy to get identification.

Answer 3

Sadly, I think that is why they stay in such ghetto locations because 'slumlords' illegally rent to them. The government is in the process of fining landlords who rent to illegal immigrants.
