WASHINGTON – Congresswoman Erin Houchin (R-Ind.-09), a member of the House Education and Workforce Committee, voted to pass the Schools Not Shelters Act to prohibit the use of educational facilities to provide shelter or housing for illegal migrants. This would include public elementary schools, public secondary schools, and institutions of higher education.
