| Supreme Court Allows Trump Admin to Implement ‘Public Charge' Test for Immigrants |
| 2020-01-27 |
| h/t Instapundit [NR] - The Supreme Court ruled on Monday to approve the Trump administration’s "public charge" rule for new immigrants. The justices approved the rule by a vote of 5-4 along ideological lines. "Public charge" has in recent years been defined as a person dependent on cash assistance programs. The Trump administration updated the definition in August 2019 to include people likely to require non-cash government benefits, and sought to implement a policy limiting the number of new immigrants who would require government assistance such as food stamps or Medicaid. |

| #2 Heard a commentator on National People's Radio (NPR) say that this decision may be a sign that the cheap-ass legal trick (I'm paraphrasing) of getting an injunction from activist judges no longer works. "Suck it, bitches!", I replied thoughtfully. |
