Schiff proposes a nationwide down-payment assistance program offering up to $50,000 per home to low-income earners below a specified income threshold. He says the program should include safeguards to prevent assistance from leading to more foreclosures, and frames it as a way to support homeownership and wealth creation.

Context: The income threshold and the proposed foreclosure safeguards are not specified.
