This rule could deny green cards to immigrants who use public benefits
The Trump administration is reviving a 'public charge' rule that could deny green cards to immigrants using public benefits like food stamps, Medicaid, and housing vouchers. The policy, first implemented in 2020 under President Donald Trump and later reversed by President Joe Biden, is being reinstated as part of efforts to emphasize self-reliance and reduce dependency on public resources.
