Wealth test. If you don't have a Green Card, you can't have a legal job.
But the person sponsoring you has to make a certain amount of money, and that amount is going to be 250% of the federal poverty level instead of the poverty level being the miniumum now.

Say:
for a family of 2, the fed limit is like 22k, now it will be something like 54k in order to sponsor someone for a green card.
