House Democrats Vote in Favor of Illegal Immigrant Voting
Democrats in the House on March 8 voted to oppose a measure lambasting illegal immigrants' voting in elections,
a sharp reversal of a previous Republican attempt to discourage such practices.

The 228-197 vote marks a major reversal from when the GOP controlled the chamber about six months ago, according to the Washington Times. At the time Republicans voted to denounce illegal immigrant voting.

"We are prepared to open up the political process and let all of the people come in," Rep. John Lewis, a Georgia Democrat, told colleagues as he led opposition to the GOP measure.

The vote on illegal immigrants came amid a broader bill dubbed the HR 1, or "For the People Act," which purportedly aims at reducing the role of big money in politics, ensuring fair elections, and strengthening ethics standards, according to the Associated Press.

However, Republican lawmakers have slammed the bill as anti-democratic and unconstitutional.

"H.R. 1 is not only a bad bill, many provisions in it are unconstitutional," Rep. Matt Gaetz (R-Fla.) wrote on Twitter. "In summary, it forces states to restore voting rights of felons, endangers First Amendment rights, Federalizes congressional redistricting, and Turns the FEC into a partisan organization."

Even if the latest measure on illegal immigrant voting passes, it will not have any practical effect. The bill will face strong opposition in the GOP-controlled Senate and Federal law still states that illegal aliens are not legally allowed to vote in federal elections.

Do democrats and rinos really need to vote on illegal aliens rights to vote...?  Maybe not after all they have the lower courts to do their bidding for them.

While everyone sleeps, the courts are abolishing all immigration enforcement

Congress could never get away with creating constitutional rights for illegal aliens to remain here, yet a single lower court just did so on Thursday. And where Congress would face deep reprisal in the next election, faceless judges will never feel the heat.

People sleep peacefully at night because there are a few tough men prepared to do violence on their behalf.

A foolish man complains about his torn pockets.

A wise man uses it to scratch his balls.
