Alexandria Ocasio-Cortez: Illegal Aliens Residing in My District Are ‘My Constituents’

Rep. Alexandria Ocasio-Cortez (D-CA) said during a Thursday House Oversight and Government Reform Committee hearing that illegal aliens residing in her district were her “constituents.”

Ocasio-Cortez, who led with a quote from Kansas Republican Secretary of State Kris Kobach, asked Commerce Secretary Wilbur Ross about his plan to add a “citizenship question” to the 2020 U.S. Census when she made the remarks about illegal aliens being her constituents.

“Mr. Kobach later emailed to you on July 14 writing that the lack of the citizenship question ‘leads to the problem that aliens who do not actually reside in the United States are still counted for congressional apportionment services,’” she said at the Thursday hearing.

“Of course they do reside in the United States. They reside in my district. They’re my constituents,” she added.

Ross announced on March 26, 2018, that the 2020 U.S. census would bring back a question asking people whether they are citizens of the U.S.

Many congressional Democrats expressed outrage over the citizenship question soon after it was announced, and many Democrats have argued the question could discourage immigrants from participating in the Census.

She is not wrong.

If you would to remove all the votes that have been cast by Illegals or the votes of the many who became citizens, than the Democrats wouldn't win above City Councilman in most of America.

THIS is the reason why the Progressives on the left and the right just can't get enough of Immigration.

Illegal or Otherwise.

“Of course they do reside in the United States. They reside in my district. They’re my constituents,” she added.

Was this not the reasoning behind the infamous 3/5ths compromise?

Did not the Democrats of old yell as loud as they could that slaves were property and yet the same time demand they be counted in the Census to inflate their own congressional numbers?

Did you ever think the US would live out the movie FOR REAL..?

AOC PLANS:

-Making air transport illegal, building bridges to Europe and Hawaii
-Destroying and re-building EVERY structure in the USA using green tech
-Doing away with concrete as a construction input
-Saving money for socialized medicine via fewer funerals
-Eliminating beef-eating pets
-Cross-breeding humans and rabbit so we can all become vegans

She is a 10 year old dressed up in costume, in an adult suit, pretending to know all the answers

Hey, let’s go mess and fool around
