Disaster-aid groups that receive federal funds are now barred from helping undocumented people, under new contracts drawn up by the U.S. Department of Homeland Security. The contracts also apply to states’ disaster-relief efforts, and they require states and nonprofits to cooperate with immigration-enforcement operations.
