EXCLUSIVE: The Republicans of the Senate, led by the Senator of Alabama, Katie Britt, prepare to exercise their powers of federal surveillance to force Washington, DC, to demand what they call the dangerous experience of the capital aimed at allowing illegal and non-citizen immigrants to vote in local elections.
Development follows the reports that 400 non-citizens Voted in the general elections of 2024, with around 100 participants in the primary.
The federal supremacy of the law prohibits the courts of states or states to allow illegal immigrants to vote in the federal elections, from a measure of the time. CW Young, R-Fla., Called the Iiraira succeeded in 1996.
However, state and municipal leaders have the capacity to authorize illegal immigrants to vote in the lower level elections, and Washington, DC, is one of the many.

Congress, on the other hand, has a single lever effect on the Constitution on the governance of the district on any question, including local affairs and the reversal of the laws adopted by the Council.
The Britt bill would prohibit non -citizens from voting in the district elections and to repeal the local law on the voting rights of residents of 2022 – that the municipal council adopted this non -citizen vote authorized in the municipal elections.
“It is not only a question of local school boards or the repair of hen nests. This is the management of the capital of our country,” said Britt.

“In the city representing the strongest democracy in the world, the DC municipal council has chosen to violate flagrant one of the fundamental principles of democracy. It is a slap in front of each American citizen, whether they live in DC or not, which should be the voters who decide who represents them at each election and at all levels of the government.
“I hope that we will obtain bipartite support in the Senate for this common sense bill – it is our duty to protect the votes of workers’ American citizens and those who have come legally in our country and have taken the time and efforts to go through the naturalization process. Ultimately, it is a question of strengthening the integrity of our elections.”

In the House, the representative August Pflueger, R-Texas, defends the complementary legislation. While Britt’s bill so far has only republican co-sponsors, Pflueger’s efforts have collected around 50 Democrats.
