Bill Summary
To amend the Immigration and Nationality Act to repeal the public charge ground of deportability, and for other purposes. This bill repeals the provision generally providing for the deportability of an alien who becomes a public charge (an alien who has received certain public benefits for a certain amount of time) within five years of entering the United States.
AI Summary
This bill, the No Public Charge Deportation Act of 2019, would repeal the provision in the Immigration and Nationality Act that allows for the deportation of an individual who becomes a "public charge" (someone who has received certain public benefits for a certain amount of time) within five years of entering the United States. The bill would remove this ground for deportability, except in cases where the individual is already inadmissible under a separate provision related to public charge.
