The measure is a <a href=\"https:\/\/www.conservativenewsdaily.net\/breaking-news\/its-happening-pennsylvania-state-legislature-files-resolution-disputes-statewide-2020-election-results\/\" title=\"It's Happening: Pennsylvania State Legislature Files Resolution -- DISPUTES STATEWIDE 2020 ELECTION RESULTS\">joint resolution<\/a> of disapproval under the Congressional Review Act, which allows Congress to take down agency rules soon after they\u2019re proposed. The White House\u2019s Office of Management and Budget announced that President Joe Biden would veto the legislation, saying the Department of Homeland Security\u2019s rule provides \u201ca clear, comprehensive, and fair standard for assessing whether a noncitizen is likely to become a public charge.\u201d<\/p>\n<h3>Details of the Latest Joint Resolution<\/h3>\n<p>The latest joint resolution targets a September 2022 rule from the Department of Homeland Security (DHS), an agency currently headed by Alejandro Mayorkas. The Biden administration rule departs significantly from the Trump-era guidance issued in 2019 that had expanded the forms of welfare that would consider an immigrant as a \u201cpublic charge.\u201d Mayorkas has often said the United States\u2019 greatest threat is \u201cwhite supremacists,\u201d drawing disapproval from Republicans such as Rep. Lauren Boebert (R-Colo.).<\/p>\n<h3>Border Patrol Encounters and Mayorkas\u2019s Rule<\/h3>\n<p>U.S. Customs and Border Patrol officers have encountered hundreds of individuals on the <a href=\"https:\/\/www.conservativenewsdaily.net\/breaking-news\/border-patrol-arrests-two-illegal-immigrants-from-yemen-on-fbi-terror-watch-list\/\" title=\"Border Patrol Arrests Two Illegal Immigrants From Yemen On FBI Terror Watch List\">terrorism watch list<\/a> on the United States\u2019 borders in this fiscal year. The <a href=\"https:\/\/www.conservativenewsdaily.net\/breaking-news\/vaccine-mandate-for-nhs-staff-to-be-introduced-by-spring-2022-reports\/\" title=\"Vaccine Mandate for NHS Staff to Be Introduced by Spring 2022: Reports\">latest statistics show<\/a> that the relative percentage of such encounters has significantly increased compared to past years. Border Patrol Southwest land border encounters have swelled, topping 250,000 in December 2022 alone. Mayorkas\u2019s rule would go in the other direction, eliminating from consideration the receipt of food stamps, Medicaid, and housing benefits, among other forms of public assistance. DHS claims its new rule is partly intended to address \u201cviolent extremism threats\u201d within his new agency, citing Jan. 6, 2021, as the impetus for his actions.<\/p>\n<h3>House Still Needs to Vote on Its Version of the Legislation<\/h3>\n<p>The House still needs to vote on its version of the legislation. Biden has so far vetoed three bills, all of them joint resolutions of disapproval aimed at rules from his agencies. The latest veto came on May 16, when the commander-in-chief struck down a measure that would have restored tariffs on some solar panels from China.<\/p>\n<h3>Conclusion<\/h3>\n<p>The Senate\u2019s approval of the legislation to nullify the Biden administration rule on immigrants is a significant development in the ongoing debate over immigration policy in the United States. The House\u2019s vote on its version of the legislation will be closely watched, as will President Biden\u2019s response to the bill if it reaches his desk.<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>The Senate passed a resolution on May 17 to potentially cancel a relaxed Biden administration policy on determining if immigrants will become public charges.
