1. Hmm. Wonder if the McKinney Homeless Act allows this.
Would be interesting.

4. 30 days before the election...
is when they have to be registered. But I'm not sure about their permanent housing by then. I used to be a voter registrar, but let my registration lapse after the election.

I'm going to try to help Mr. Rainey here in Dallas (the LA Dem head). First thing I want to do is get those folks some voter reg's! I think it might be a LITTLE early, but I think he's out today trying to get housing for them.

5. The State of Texas is enrolling their children into the school system.

That alone must at least acknowledge that these are now citizens of Texas!

edit for grammar.
