I have not understood this new regulation.
It seems to have little effect other than adding to the fears of new immigrants and comforting fearful citizens.

"The 447-page rule, titled “Inadmissibility on Public Charge Grounds,” will not apply to families making less than 15 percent of the official poverty designation, officials said."
    I doubt that.

"“This is an attack on immigrant families and an attempt to make our immigration system a pay-to-play system where only the wealthy need apply,” said Jackie Vimo, a policy analyst with the National Immigration Law Center, a Washington-based group that defends low-income immigrants. “This is a radical transformation of our immigration, and does a runaround on Congress.”"

The 447 page rule has not been read. 

There is an executive summery.
