WASHINGTON - The U.S. Supreme Court gave the go-ahead on Monday for one of President Donald Trump’s hardline immigration policies, allowing his administration to implement a rule denying legal permanent residency to certain immigrants deemed likely to require government assistance in the future.
Lawsuits aiming to block the policy were filed against the administration by the states of New York, Connecticut and Vermont as well as by New York City and several nonprofit organizations. Ken Cuccinelli, acting deputy secretary at the U.S. Department of Homeland Security, praised the high court’s action.
U.S. immigration law has long required officials to exclude a person likely to become a “public charge” from permanent residency. But U.S. guidelines in place for the past two decades had said that immigrants likely to become primarily dependent only on direct cash assistance or long-term institutionalization, in a nursing home for example, at the government’s expense would be barred under “public charge” grounds.
It has a two-way policy, respect for the law and consideration for human emotions, both of which should be taken into account, difficult but not impossible.
HomelandKen The court doesn't ENFORCE the law, genius, they INTERPRET it!! Most 4th grade civics students are better qualified to do your job than you!
Thank God.

'Hardline.'
I love all of humanity but if statics show a treat to our way of living we must take action! MEXICO AND OTHER ENTITIES must step up and help rectify the matter! God bless everyone in Jesus MIGHTY name especially our immigrant brothers and sisters!
Interesting dilemma. US has 43 million impoverished citizens. 4th highest OECD child poverty rate. We are not handling existing problems well.
Consequences of electing Trump and Republicans.
DACA Dreamers cheated again by Trump! VoteWise in 2020!
Fantastic. In other words, common sense
Only taking in people taxpayers don't have to pay for is hardline? It's more common sense!
Your daily reminder that all three branches of government are corrupt.
Of course it does, Trump placed two of them there after all.
Gee, what a surprise. Now that the Court is packed with right-wing pimps who have no interest in justice, this is the foreseeable future.
I want to thank Israel and our Jewish friends for showing us the way on immigration.

5-4 Supreme Court allows rule that could reshape legal immigration to take effectThe Supreme Court Monday in a 5-4 vote cleared the way for the Trump administration to make it more difficult for immigrants who rely on public assistance to obtain legal status. This is what WINNING looks like. Thank you President Trump Expect a Trump2020Landslide This reminds me of a visit to Switzerland. Our guide told the group if anyone desires to relocate to their country,, that person was required to open their financial records and show self sufficiency. There would be NO welfare. Another of what will be decades of 5-4 rulings that restrict immigration, erode voter rights, discriminate vs the poor, non-whites, LGBTQ community...and anyone different from White people who feel “their country” is falling apart. Thanks Mitch for blocking SC nomination in ‘16!

Thank you. Throw 2020 away 🗑 For those that don't know, as a 'Super Power', America has always been first, but we were compassionate. We looked after the less fortunate, the oppressed, the weak...that is America's strength, that is America's beauty. Now... look in the below comments from Trump's American's.
