House Dems overwhelmingly reject motion to condemn illegal immigrant voting

President Trump's emergency declaration Nearly every House Democrat on Friday opposed a measure condemning voting in U.S. elections by illegal immigrants, as part of a sweeping election reform bill.

The GOP-backed measure would have added language to the “H.R. 1” election proposal stating that “allowing illegal immigrants the right to vote devalues the franchise and diminishes the voting power of United States citizens.”

Federal law already prohibits non-citizens from voting in elections for federal office. But the GOP motion referenced how San Francisco is allowing non-citizens, including illegal immigrants, to register to vote in school board elections.

The motion was voted down 228-197. All but six Democrats in the House voted against it. Just one Republican opposed it.

Lauren Fine, a spokeswoman for House GOP Whip Steve Scalise, pointed out that an identical resolution was adopted by the House last September. But on Friday, 41 Democrats flipped to oppose the latest measure.

The Dems are in full psycho mode, not even pretending to be rational or reasonable.

Everyone can thank Paul Ryan for the horror show in the Congress right now.

His flaccid response to the wholesale cheatfest that happened in the aftermath of election day is what gave the Rats their majority.

It’s true a bunch of RINOs retired. But their districts were all mostly winnable. Ask Mimi Rogers.

Let’s see: The Democrats support foreign nationals voting in US elections. But they go into a hissy fit if Russians spend a few bucks for social media ads.

Got it.

They used to try to hide hide it. Trump has put them under the magnifying glass. Now if we can just get the sun to come out.

The DemocRats have fully exposed every aspect of their treasonous, anti-American agenda. They aren’t hiding a thing. And half the country still supports them.

Let’s just allow everyone in China to vote in American elections. That should get more Democrats elected.

I really don’t think we should have critters voting in our elections who have an I.Q. below that of a chimpanzee.

Any illegal immigrant found voting in a US election should be denied the right of US citizenship.

Many illegal immigrants have little education having trouble speaking and writing. The Dems. just want them to vote for more government stuff, through their party.

Democrats are no longer Americans

When considering any Democrat action or words, evaluation must be made on the basis that the person is not an American
