共和黨總檢察長要求最高法院恢復公共收費規則。
April 05, 2021
Last Tuesday, fourteen GOP attorney generals asked the Supreme Court to bring back to life the Trump administration’s public charge rule, which penalizes immigrants for using certain public benefits. The rule was dissolved by a federal judge in Illinois in November, but was appealed by the federal government subsequently. In March, under the Biden administration, the government dismissed their pending appeals. Now, the states said that Biden’s dismissal has evaded the Supreme Court’s review of the policy. The rule was previously struck down by five federal courts, with the Trump administration appealing every time. But in March, the Seventh Circuit rejected the states’ bid to intervene, setting up their Tuesday petition. The petition affirms the states would be impacted by the injunction, especially on the financial side.
