This is the rule that allows states to deny green cards to people that they feel will rely on public assistance. We need to remember that immigrants who arrived in America before the War on Poverty had to provide for their own needs. They were the people who built this country. Unfortunately we are now in a situation where many immigrants come here for what they can get, not what they can contribute.<\/p>\n<p>The article reports:<\/p>\n<p style=\"padding-left: 40px;\"><strong>\u201cPresident Trump\u2019s administration is reinforcing the ideals of self-sufficiency and personal responsibility, ensuring that immigrants are able to support themselves and become successful here in America,\u201d stated USCIS Director Ken Cuccinelli.<\/strong><\/p>\n<p style=\"padding-left: 40px;\"><strong>The Department of Homeland Security defined the scope of \u201cpublic charge\u201d in August 2019. They expanded it to include immigrants who are likely to use public benefits like Medicaid, food stamp and housing vouchers.<\/strong><\/p>\n<p style=\"padding-left: 40px;\"><strong>Several states, including California, New York and Illinois, issued \u201cuniversal\u201d injunctions to stop enforcement of the rule across the country.<\/strong><\/p>\n<p style=\"padding-left: 40px;\"><strong>\u201cIt is a point of principle that we stand up at a moment like this, as a state, and assert ourselves,\u201d said Gov. Gavin Newsom (D-Calif.). \u201c(We will) protect not only the values of the state, but the remarkable diversity that we represent within this state.\u201d<\/strong><\/p>\n<p style=\"padding-left: 40px;\"><strong>Last month, the high court struck down the injunctions and expanded the rule to every state except Illinois, which has been since included in the ruling.<\/strong><\/p>\n<p style=\"padding-left: 40px;\"><strong>Advocates have urged immigrants not to be afraid of signing up for public assistance. They claimed the affected population will be small.<\/strong><\/p>\n<p style=\"padding-left: 40px;\"><strong>\u201cThe people who are actually, directly impacted by this is very small,\u201d said Immigration Advocates Network Director Rodrigo Camarena. \u201cWe should remind our immigrant friends and neighbors that, in all likelihood, this decision does not affect you.\u201d<\/strong><\/p>\n<p>First of all, we need to do away with the idea of &#8216;universal injunctions.&#8217; There is no way under our Constitution that one state should be able to control the actions of another state.<\/p>\n<p>The article concludes:<\/p>\n<p style=\"padding-left: 40px;\"><strong>The new order will allow the federal government to enforce the \u201cpublic charge\u201d rule without being blocked, but courts will still be able to appeal the rule in their state.<\/strong><\/p>\n<p style=\"padding-left: 40px;\"><strong>The 7th Circuit Court of Appeals in Illinois will hear oral arguments on the issue next week. The new rule will take effect nationwide on Monday.<\/strong><\/p>\n<p>Keep in mind that the Democrats need a dependent class in order to win elections.
