We are a RICH nation and can well afford to take in immigrants that are so desperately in need of a safe place to live and work! Jobs are plentiful for them as so many Americans will NOT do lawn care, hotel room cleaning, fruit and vegetable picking, heavy construction labor, etc... Many churches and other organizations are prepared to help with food , housing and healthcare. This rule is an excuse to close our borders to people in need. We should NOT fear them, or tell Americans that they are criminals. I am ashamed of an America that will NOT help these people !

Abstract

The U.S. Department of Homeland Security (DHS) proposes to prescribe how it determines whether an alien is inadmissible to the United States under section 212(a)(4) of the Immigration and Nationality Act (INA) because he or she is likely at any time to become a public charge. Aliens who seek adjustment of status or a visa, or who are applicants for admission, must establish that they are not likely at any time to become a public charge, unless Congress has expressly exempted them from this ground of inadmissibility or has otherwise permitted them to seek a waiver of inadmissibility. Moreover, DHS proposes to require all aliens seeking an extension of stay or change of status to demonstrate that they have not received, are not currently receiving, nor are likely to receive, public benefits as defined in the proposed rule.
