118th Congress (1st) Vote 130 - A joint resolution disapproving of the rule submitted by the Department of Homeland Security relating to "Public Charge Ground of Inadmissibility".

Bill 118 SJRes 18 is a joint resolution that aims to disapprove of a rule submitted by the Department of Homeland Security regarding the "Public Charge Ground of Inadmissibility." The rule in question would make it more difficult for immigrants to obtain legal status in the United States if they are deemed likely to become a public charge, meaning they may rely on government assistance programs.

The resolution seeks to overturn this rule, arguing that it unfairly targets low-income immigrants and could prevent them from accessing necessary services and support. Supporters of the resolution believe that immigrants should not be penalized for seeking assistance that is available to all individuals in need, regardless of their immigration status.

Opponents of the resolution argue that the rule is necessary to ensure that immigrants are self-sufficient and not a burden on the government. They believe that the rule will help protect taxpayers and ensure that resources are allocated to those who truly need them. Overall, the resolution has sparked debate among lawmakers and advocates on both sides of the issue. It remains to be seen how Congress will ultimately vote on Bill 118 SJRes 18 and what impact it will have on immigration policy in the United States.
