Jason Snead, Executive Director of Honest Elections Project Action, released the following statement:
“Congratulations to the U.S. House of Representatives for passing legislation to repeal Washington, D.C.’s absurd law allowing noncitizens to vote in local elections. There is absolutely no reason that illegal immigrants or embassy staff working for China and Russia should be allowed to vote in our nation’s capital. Democrats claim they oppose noncitizen voting. Now is the time for Senator Schumer and Senate Democrats to prove it by sending this bill to President Biden to end noncitizen voting in America’s capital.”
