Contradicts the principle of the 'American Dream': the judge blocked the immigration rule

A U.S. federal judge in New York has blocked the enforcement of a rule imposed by the Trump administration. According to this norm, an immigrant may be denied the right to permanent residence in the United States if the official considers that the immigrant may seek help from the state, writes Voice of America.

We are talking about food allowances, preferential medical insurance and the provision of subsidized housing.

According to the rule, immigration officials must make decisions regarding the immigrant's visa status, taking into account factors such as income level (minimum 32 187 dollars for a family of four) and knowledge of English. The Trump administration insists that all immigrants in the United States should be able to take care of themselves.

This rule of the US Department of Homeland Security was to take effect on October 15.

The judge blocked the enforcement of such a rule nationwide. In the verdict, he explained that the federal government did not provide evidence of the need to apply this rule, which is contrary to the principle of the "American dream."

Separately, a judge in Auckland, California, banned the implementation of this policy in four states and the District of Columbia, writes Time.

Immigrant rights groups and several states argue that the new rule is contrary to existing immigration laws and will increase the cost of providing medical and other services to immigrants.

The last hurdle ForumDaily wrote about is became a decision Trump’s administration does not allow immigrants who do not have health insurance and cannot afford to pay medical expenses.
