The Supreme Court ruled in favor of the Trump administration on Friday night in a case that contested the president’s “public charge” rule, which critics have called a “wealth test” for legal immigrants.

Hasn't the "public charge" rule always been the law and the Democrats are just mad that he's enforcing it?

From the replies following the article;

“The Immigration and Nationality Act (enacted in 1952, and amended in 1965) - “Any alien who, in the opinion of the consular officer at the time of application for a visa, or in the opinion of the Attorney General at the time of application for admission or adjustment of status, is likely at any time to become a public charge is excludable.”

Receiving Medicaid, housing vouchers and food stamps certainly fall into the the public charge category.
