Protect American Values Act

This bill would bar the use of any federal funds, including fees, to implement, administer, enforce, or carry out the Department of Homeland Security rule titled "Public Charge Ground of Inadmissibility" (91 Fed. Reg. 45324). The ban would also cover any guidance or other policy that implements or clarifies that rule. The bill includes a statement of the sense of Congress that immigrants are a core part of the nation and that the rule would limit access to food, medical care, and housing for many families.
