House Democrats voted Friday to defend localities that allow illegal immigrants to vote in their elections, turning back a GOP attempt to discourage the practice.
The vote marks a stunning reversal from just six months ago, when the chamber then under GOP control voted to decry 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 and hero of the civil rights movement, told colleagues as he led opposition to the GOP measure.
The 228-197 vote came as part of a broader debate on Democrats major legislative priority this year, HR 1, the For the People Act, which includes historic expansions of voter registration and access, as well as a major rewrite of campaign finance laws.
The measure would have had no practical effect even if it had passed. Illegal immigrants and indeed noncitizens as a whole are not legally able to participate in federal elections.

Just like the Republicans voting to REPEAL OBAMACARE, until they got the absolute power to do it then chickened out...................
It only takes one act of tyranny, performed at some seemingly irrelevant locality - Lexington and Concord for example - to stoke a firestorm. A skirmish in a small town that spread to other communities - then throughout a state ... Then outsiders rally to the sound of the guns, and before you can shout “open rebellion” - Civil War II has begun.
This country is a powder keg. One spark is all that is required to set it off. I don’t know what that “spark” will be, but I know its coming - and, unlike the first “civil” war - there will be no prisoners, no mercy and no quarter ...
The killing will be done with such an intensely vengeful hatred that the atrocities committed will be beyond anything you may imagine. I guarantee you that is what is coming.
When have the democrats ever considered anything about the constitution???????
I’d like to vote in South Africa so I can help boot the ANC from power.
“And so it begins.....”

Why was ‘MAJORITY RULE’ so important in South Africa, but is a sin here?.....................
And the Senate will hopefully vote against this..because this is what the commie left wants, voting for illegals, so you will have 30 million illegal alien DEMOCRAT voting turds..if these same people voted Republican the wall would have already been built, with Schumer and Pelosi’s bare hands

Ditto that. ;)
illegals are not here on vacation. LOL your response is illogical.
Illegals pay taxes in several ways.
I stand by my comment.
Please note, I said they shouldn’t be here at all.
You can’t have 20 million people here and then say they aren’t here.
Discourage the practice? Screw them, they're supporting this just as much. Where's the lawsuits?
Franklin missed an item from 'death & taxes'. The other universal constant is the essential competition over scarce resources.
It's why humans evolved as a migratory species. It's why sapiens sapiens are found in every ecological niche on the globe, including Antarctica.
And just as rust never sleeps, neither do population pressures & resource constraints relax the unrelenting struggle to to survive.
So, they will come in waves of mass migrations, unorganized armies of refugees seeking to secure just a small piece of security.
Those who enjoy the spoils of previous conquests, and the institutions established by prior generations, will either defend what they currently possess, or will lose it to more desperate and motivated groups.
It's really that simple. You cannot keep what you cannot hold and vice versa.
The Brains Behind AOC Alexandria Ocasio-Cortez
https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=1h5iv6sECGU
Quotes from the video:
"Wholesale change in two years (by 2018)". - Great start.
"We want to replace Congress" - that obviously includes the Senate.
"Their goal isn't ideological, their goal is control and power."
One of AOC's team, Zach Alexis, was once a fellow of the "Open Boarders Foundation", which is George Soros' organization.
AOC's chief of staff, Saikat Chakrabarti, "the man behind the curtain", has a hero who was an Indian revolutionary (he often wears a shirt with the man's image) who wanted a violent overthrow of British rule. Like Obama, he's an "Anti-Colonialist. His hero's moto:
"Our philosophy should be a synthesis between Nazism and Communism."
Cenk Uygur, the front man who help start the "Justice Democrats" named his "Young Turks" after the Turkish group in 1911 who slaughtered 1.5 million Armenian Christians.
The mastermind: Cenk Uygur from the "Young Turks".
I don't think so. The mastermind, IMO: George Soros and his band of Oligarchs.
Soros connections:

The REAL "collusion" behind subverting our elections and then America!
I no longer think America has the will to survive.
Because they know there’s no other way to win. They have dead policies that have no weight to them right now. You can’t tempt people with “free stuff” when they’re working and don’t need it.
The only way to give “free stuff” to anyone at this point is to illegal immigrants, in this case the ability to vote as well. Pander to those that want what they don’t have - FOR POWER. It’s all they ever do.
Details Of Communist Ocasio-Cortezs Ties To George Soros Revealed
YOU do not matter.
It is time to water that tree with the likes of these people.
They are virtue signaling to their radical base. Not a chance in hell this will go anywhere in the senate, much less get a presidents signature.
I love it when demofascists masks come off completely.
Not going anywhere. The Senate will trash can it.
This is how things will play out for the next 2 years. House demonratcommiescumbags will WASTE TIME AND MONEY and the Senate will kill whatever comes their way.
Anything that makes it past the Senate it must still be Signed by President Trump.
My Tagline about covers it all.
