Disapproving of the rule submitted by the Department of Homeland Security relating to "Public Charge Ground of Inadmissibility".

HJRES 41 disapproves a Department of Homeland Security (DHS) rule that expanded the "public charge" standard, which previously allowed officials to deny visas or green cards to immigrants likely to use public benefits like Medicaid or housing assistance. This resolution would nullify the rule (published in the Federal Register as 87 Fed. Reg. 5547), meaning it could no longer be enforced against immigrants applying for U.S. entry or residency. The bill directly affects noncitizens seeking visas, green cards, or adjustment of status who might use public benefits, as the rule had broadened the criteria for denying their applications. As a disapproval resolution under the Congressional Review Act, it stops the rule from taking effect without creating new immigration law.
