143 Democrats Voted Against Bill Barring Non-Americans Voting In DC Elections

The GOP-led House passed a bill with bipartisan support on Thursday to prevent noncitizens from voting in local Washington, DC, elections. This is a further push for election integrity by Republicans at a time when radicals in the Biden administration have facilitated the greatest illegal alien invasion this nation has ever seen. The latest government data shows ten million migrants have invaded the country through the open southern border. Predictably, the majority of Democrats opposed the bill.

Fifty-two Democrats joined 210 Republicans in favor of bill HR 192, while 143 Democrats opposed.

The bill bars noncitizens from voting in “an election for public office in the District of Columbia or in any ballot initiative or referendum in the District of Columbia.” Federal law already prohibits noncitizens from voting in federal-level elections.

Republicans blasted the local law this week, arguing that noncitizens should not participate in local elections in the nation’s capital. 

Speaker Mike Johnson (R-La.) released a statement on X that said “radical policy” from local DC politicians is “anti-American and dilutes the constitutional rights of DC residents.”

Here’s what other politicians are saying:

Only allowing U.S. citizens to vote in U.S. elections shouldn’t be controversial.

Non-citizens should not vote in U.S. elections.

Today, the House rejected the D.C. Council’s resolution allowing noncitizens to vote.

143 Democrats voted to allow non-citizens to vote—which tells you everything you need to know about where they stand on election integrity.

Only American citizens should vote in American elections.

I just voted for H.R. 192 to ban illegals from voting in our elections in our nation’s capital.

We must preserve this precious right for U.S. citizens and U.S. citizens alone.

Voting in U.S. elections is a right of citizenship. That’s why I voted FOR H.R. 192, to prevent non-U.S. citizens from voting in D.C. elections. Congress has a constitutional duty to oversee the governance of D.C. and today @HouseGOP is sending a strong message that we OPPOSE…

It’s utterly absurd that a majority of Democrats voted against HR 192. Now you understand why radicals in the White House have flooded the nation with millions of illegals. This lawless behavior is a move to steal elections.
