Trump Admin Reinstitutes Clinton Immigration Law, Open Borders Advocates Melt Down
So, Trump did this
JUST ANNOUNCED: President @realDonaldTrump will enforce a Clinton-era law to ensure that non-citizens do not abuse our public benefit programs and jeopardize the safety net needed by vulnerable Americans. https://t.co/UrZF4mCP6Q

Democrats then worked very hard to ignore the Bill Clinton part
Trump admin announces rule that could limit legal immigration
The Trump administration released a regulation Monday that could dramatically cut the number of legal immigrants allowed to enter and stay in the US by making it easier to reject green card and visa applications.
Paired with last week’s enforcement raids on food processing plants in Mississippi, Monday’s announcement amounts to a concerted effort by the administration to limit legal immigration and crack down on illegal immigration.
The rule means many green card and visa applicants could be turned down if they have low incomes or little education, and have used benefits such as most forms of Medicaid, food stamps, and housing vouchers, because they’d be deemed more likely to need government assistance in the future.
It will encourage “self-reliance and self-sufficiency for those seeking to come to or stay in the United States,” said acting US Citizenship and Immigration Services Director Ken Cuccinelli, appearing in the White House briefing room. In doing so, though, it’ll likely make it harder for low-income immigrants to come to the US.
When asked about whether the rule is unfairly targeting low-income immigrants, Cuccinelli said: “We certainly expect people of any income to be able to stand on their own two feet, so if people are not able to be self-sufficient, than this negative factor is going to bear very heavily against them in a decision about whether they’ll be able to become a legal permanent resident. “
For most people, this makes total sense. Why would we allow people to immigrate to the U.S. when they are just going to become wards of the state? In fact, this really isn’t any sort of change. To become a citizen, you have to be able to pay for yourself, so, this really isn’t much of a change. It is cute how they include the targeted enforcement operation against illegal aliens.
And, of course, you get things like this
New York Attorney General Letitia James announced Monday evening that she plans to sue to block the rule.
“President Trump’s new public charge rule is yet one more example of his Administration turning its back on people fighting to make a better life for them and their families,” James said in a statement. “Under this rule, children will go hungry; families will go without medical care. I am committed to defending all of New York’s communities, which is why I intend to sue the Trump Administration over this egregious rule.”
But
Under current regulations put in place in 1996, the term “public charge” is defined as someone who is “primarily dependent” on government assistance, meaning it supplies more than half their income. But it only counted cash benefits, such as Temporary Assistance for Needy Families or Supplemental Security Income from Social Security.
Who was president in 1996? Nowhere is the word “Clinton” mentioned. He isn’t mentioned by furry Beto O’Rouke, whose tweet is quoted. Nor the other Open Borders advocates.
I’m truly enjoying these meltdowns #BillClintonLaw https://t.co/bOEPeHxLqf

This is something that most 1st World nations do. Want to immigrate? You have to take care of yourself and your family without government assistance. Heck, Mexico does this. Nations do not want to be letting in wards of the state and people who cannot contribute.
