BREAKING
SCOTUS to hear “Public Charge Rule” case.
SCOTUS has agreed to hear the “Public Charge Rule” case e.g. Department of Homeland Security, et al., Petitioners v. New York, et al. This rule is viewed as seeking to discourage some immigrants, by way of denying green cards, from using public services such as food stamps. Even though the issues being taken up in court this Fall, it may actually become null if the Biden administration revises it before then.
Per today’s New York Times article: “The Trump administration announced in 2019 that it would revise the rule, which allows officials to deny permanent legal status, also known as a green card, to immigrants who are likely to need public assistance. In the past, only substantial and sustained monetary help or long-term institutionalization counted, and fewer than 1 percent of applicants were disqualified on public-charge grounds.”

Trump to Reform Immigration via Reagan Blueprint?

House Republicans push asylum restrictions, border security
According to this article on Associated Press, by STEPHEN GROVES
“WASHINGTON (AP) — House Republicans for months have railed against the Biden administration’s handling of the U.S. border with Mexico, holding hearings, visiting border communities and promising to advance legislation to clamp down on illegal immigration and drug trafficking.
But so far, they have failed to unify behind a plan, delaying efforts to pass legislation.
Now they are hoping to change that. Republicans on Wednesday jump-started work on an immigration and border enforcement package that would remake immigration law to make it more difficult to apply for asylum and easier for the federal government to stop migrants from entering the U.S. It combines proposals from a number of conservative hardliners into a single bill.”
BREAKING
Biden is ignoring immigration issues, voters say in poll
According to this article on Politico, by Myah Ward
“President Joe Biden’s immigration problem isn’t just about policy. It’s that he’s not talking about the issue enough, voters say in a new survey from a Democratic polling firm.
Fifty-eight percent of voters in seven key Electoral College battleground states disapprove of how the president is handling immigration, compared with 32 percent who approve, according to a new swing-state poll from Global Strategy Group first shared with POLITICO. And a majority of voters surveyed, at 52 percent, believe Biden is ignoring problems at the border, while 50 percent said the president is ignoring the situation around undocumented immigrants.”
