The Senate on Wednesday passed a resolution, with bipartisan support, disapproving of the Biden administration’s "public charge" rule on which forms of welfare legal immigrants can receive without being ineligible for a green card, despite a White House threat to veto.

Sen. Roger Marshall, R-Kansas, forced a vote on a resolution of disapproval under the Congressional Review Act — which allows lawmakers to object to rules being put forward by the administration.
