2020-02-24 at 12:28 PM UTC in Trump Is Going UpAnother win for Trump and another win for the American people. SCOTUS overruled all the injunctions set buy activists judges in the lower courts that were in place against the Public Charge rule. Which means no more welfare for illegal aliens among other important measures to control our border.
https://www.uscis.gov/legal-resources/final-rule-public-charge-ground-inadmissibilityALERT: U.S. Citizenship and Immigration Services (USCIS) will implement the Inadmissibility on Public Charge Grounds final rule on Feb. 24, 2020, except in Illinois, where the rule remains enjoined by a federal court as of Jan. 30, 2020. The final rule will apply only to applications and petitions postmarked (or submitted electronically) on or after Feb.24, 2020. For applications and petitions sent by commercial courier (such as UPS, FedEx, and DHL), the postmark date is the date reflected on the courier receipt. When determining whether an alien is likely to become a public charge at any time in the future, DHS will not consider an alien’s application for, certification or approval to receive, or receipt of certain non-cash public benefits before Feb. 24, 2020. Similarly, when determining whether the public benefits condition applies to applications or petitions for extension of stay or change of status, USCIS will only consider public benefits received on or after Feb. 24, 2020.
USCIS will post updated forms and submission instructions on the USCIS website during the week of Feb. 3, 2020, to give applicants, petitioners and others time to review updated procedures and adjust filing methods. For more information, see our news release.
For now, DHS remains enjoined from implementing the final rule in Illinois. If the injunction in Illinois is lifted, USCIS will provide additional public guidance.Self-sufficiency has long been a basic principle of U.S. immigration law. Since the 1800s, Congress has put into statute that individuals are inadmissible to the United States if they are unable to care for themselves without becoming public charges. Since 1996, federal laws have stated that aliens generally must be self-sufficient. This final rule provides guidance on how to determine if someone applying for admission or adjustment of status is likely at any time to become a public charge.
The Law:
The primary immigration law today is the Immigration and Nationality Act of 1952 (the INA, or the Act), as amended.
Section 212(a)(4) of the INA (8 U.S.C. 1182(a)(4)): “Any alien who, in the opinion of the consular officer at the time of application for a visa, or in the opinion of the Attorney General at the time of application for admission or adjustment of status, is likely at any time to become a public charge is inadmissible[…] In determining whether an alien is excludable under this paragraph, the consular officer or the Attorney General shall at a minimum consider the alien’s-(I) age; (II) health; (III) family status; (IV) assets, resources, and financial status; and (V) education and skills . . . .”
8 U.S.C. § 1601 (PDF)(1): “Self-sufficiency has been a basic principle of United States immigration law since this country’s earliest immigration statutes.”
8 U.S.C. § 1601 (PDF)(2)(A): “It continues to be the immigration policy of the United States that – aliens within the Nation’s borders not depend on public resources to meet their needs, but rather rely on their own capabilities and the resources of their families, their sponsors, and private organizations.”
8 U.S.C. § 1601 (PDF) (2)(B): It is also the immigration policy of the United States that “the availability of public benefits not constitute an incentive for immigration to the United States.”
DHS Final Rule:
On August 14, 2019, the U.S. Department of Homeland Security (DHS) published the Inadmissibility on Public Charge Grounds final rule that codifies regulations governing the application of the public charge inadmissibility ground under INA section 212(a)(4). On Oct. 2, DHS issued a corresponding correction. On Oct. 10, 2018, DHS issued a Notice of Proposed Rulemaking (NPRM), which was published in the Federal Register for a 60-day comment period. DHS received and considered over 266,000 public comments before issuing this final rule. The final rule provides summaries and responses to all significant public comments.
The final rule enables the federal government to better carry out provisions of U.S. immigration law related to the public charge ground of inadmissibility. The final rule clarifies the factors considered when determining whether someone is likely at any time in the future to become a public charge, is inadmissible under section 212(a)(4) of the INA, and therefore, ineligible for admission or adjustment of status.
The rule applies to applicants for admission, aliens seeking to adjust their status to that of lawful permanent residents from within the United States, and aliens within the United States who hold a nonimmigrant visa and seek to extend their stay in the same nonimmigrant classification or to change their status to a different nonimmigrant classification.
The final rule does not create any penalty or disincentive for past, current, or future receipt of public benefits by U.S. citizens or aliens whom Congress has exempted from the public charge ground of inadmissibility. The final rule does not apply to U.S. citizens, even if the U.S. citizen is related to a noncitizen who is subject to the public charge ground of inadmissibility. The rule also does not apply to aliens whom Congress exempted from the public charge ground of inadmissibility, such as refugees, asylees, Afghans and Iraqis with special immigrant visas, and certain nonimmigrant trafficking and crime victims, individuals applying under the Violence Against Women Act, special immigrant juveniles, or to those who DHS has granted a waiver of public charge inadmissibility.
In addition, this rule also clarifies that DHS will not consider the receipt of designated public benefits received by an alien who, at the time of receipt, or at the time of filing the application for admission, adjustment of status, extension of stay, or change of status, is enlisted in the U.S. armed forces, or is serving in active duty or in any of the Ready Reserve components of the U.S. armed forces, and will not consider the receipt of public benefits by the spouse and children of such service members. The rule further provides that DHS will not consider public benefits received by children, including adopted children, who will acquire U.S. citizenship under INA section 320, 8 U.S.C. 1431.
Similarly, DHS will not consider the Medicaid benefits received: (1) for the treatment of an “emergency medical condition,” (2) as services or benefits provided in connection with the Individuals with Disabilities Education Act, (3) as school-based services or benefits provided to individuals who are at or below the oldest age eligible for secondary education as determined under State or local law, (4) by aliens under the age of 21, and (5) by pregnant women and by women within the 60-day period beginning on the last day of the pregnancy.
DHS will only consider public benefits received directly by the applicant for the applicant’s own benefit, or where the applicant is a listed beneficiary of the public benefit. DHS will not consider public benefits received on behalf of another as a legal guardian or pursuant to a power of attorney for such a person. DHS will also not attribute receipt of a public benefit by one or more members of the applicant’s household to the applicant unless the applicant is also a listed beneficiary of the public benefit. -

Originally posted by mmQ I said I guess. I'm not sure exactly what it is, but that's the most sensible thing I've been able to conclude thus far, though I'm not absolutely sure by any means. You're right.

Originally posted by mmQ I'll assume the end of your paragraph was '…said over and over that he wasn't. Any mmquemstions?'
Yes. I asked you my question regarding your time spent trying to get two people to admit they were wrong. I'm not even taking sides… this is why I didn't ask earlier, because it's a genuine question now more reinforced by the hundreds of posts. It would've been weird to ask that during the beginning of the thread.

The Leesburg Bikefest in central FL is quickly becoming the best rally in the east. The town has a no open container law except during the Bikefest. They suspend that law for the week. In other words they want our money for local businesses not the local court system.

Originally posted by Speedy Parker 1. I already answered both of your questions.
2. I am not changing my answers or retyping them.
3. I asked you how the travel ban sacrificed the essential liberties of Americans before you asked either of your questions.
4. The sad fact for you is that you have no answer because it does not in fact sacrifice the essential liberties of Americans it protects them.
If you disagree with #4 now is the time to show everyone reading this thread on how you are smarter than all the users who disagree with you and educate us on how the travel ban sacrifices the essential liberties of Americans.
P.S. On a scale of 1 to 10 how much does it piss you off that you can't explain how the travel ban sacrifices the essential liberties of Americans? -

Originally posted by Erekshun Enjoy the trip! In less than 3 weeks I will be at the Daytona bike rally. I don't like crowds but I have never been to the spring rally so I want to be able to say I have been.
Daytona has changed drastically since I first went in 80. The town is really trying to do away with it. I went in 14 and 15 and the cops were total dicks. I read afterwards in the papers that they handed out over 7500 tickets to bikers in 15. If you have never been it's worth the trip because it may not be around much longer. Have fun but be careful of the fuzz and mind your P&Q's especially with open containers. -
