The most insane legally protected situation there ever was. It’s too bizarre to comprehend that this can actually happen and it happens all the time

Squatters are more of a state thing.

The US Congress exists to funnel and launder money through Ukraine.

Let’s ship our squatters to China so they can live in the ghost cities.

How did this become a thing?
Makes zero sense.

I don’t know, but, when they do, you won’t like the address. If you DO like the address, then a few calls will be made, threats of “say, we have a short film of you and your page” will be whispered, and you once again won’t like the address.

That's an issue for state and local governments, but the federal government will inject itself (on behalf of the squatters) if/when the former starts cracking down on these miscreants.

Local DA's and States AG's need to be fired.

Someone would have to squat one of their mansions and then maybe they would wake up.

It is as ignorant as MSNBC and Ppepermint Patty laughing at Ohio & PA worried about their borders and immigration.

Isn't this a State issue? I really do not want Congress in the middle of real estate and home ownership...

No.

We can't complain about the growth of the federal government while simultaneously demanding they take on my responsibilities.

This, to me, is a 10th Amendment issue (especially in light of SCOTUS' reasoning in Kelo).

I always associated “squatters” to be more of an urban thing with bums taking up residence in an abandoned commercial business.

That differs from todays squatters, who are opportunity seekers and grifters scouring the internet for obituary notices with a plan to move in.

State issue. Let the blue POS states allow it.

Florida just removed squatters rights via legislative action.

The fake lease shite is maddening. But that’s over now in Florida.

Democrats won't address squatters because Squatters Rights are one of the left's tools in their war on private landlords.

This is a great example of government getting bigger

1. State problem becomes federal with Congress involved.
2. We have laws already that protect property owners. This isn't a widesprrad issue and I'd love to know stats around how big this problem actually is....

So to sum it up this isn't a real issue but you want to federalize it and create more laws around it.....liberals running amok on this place lately. First it was less gun rights and now squatting.

They have addressed it by doing nothing.

Squatters are more important and moral than home owners.

State issues. Property issues are handled on the local level. No need for Congressional overreacting.

Should be a state issue but the feds could make it a federal one if they chose.

It’s by design, this is a communist thing, make laws to take/steal property from certain groups and give it to certain others

Squatters will be addressed as soon as someone finds and releases Blackrock’s property holdings to illegal aliens

Once a few million illegals squat in their property, it will become the greatest existential crisis facing the nation

Well congress does occupy a house that does not belong to them. At least when I attended public school it was called the peoples house

Congress will back off when they realize most squatters are illegal aliens.
