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.

The MAIN obstacle to a stable and JUST world is the United States of America- George Soros
Add "Justice Democrats", "HopeNotHate", and many, many more organizations to his web!
Various public office races are COMBINED on nearly all ballots, for efficiency and simplicity sake. Sure, they are going to give the non-citizens a different ballot than citizens. Sure....
I don't this this is an issue of no one wanting to lead. There are plenty of patriotic leaders out there. The issue comes down to this:
The conditions that brought about our first Civil War...or even our war for Independence (which in some ways was a Civil War itself - English subjects against English subjects) do not exist here...yet.
Today's America is increadibly decadent.
Anyone can go to their local grocery store (in many cases, a "super" market or mega store) and find all the food they could ever want or need. It's only a question of money that determines how much and of what you casually decide to purchase and (most likely) place in your modern vehicle equipped with air conditioner and a heater (just to name the basics).
You'll go home to a modern home where you most likely have all the running water (cold, warm or hot, your choice) and heating and air conditioning you'd want at your near instant disposal. Again, only money determining how much you consume.
Most will turn on a giant ultra thin television and tune in just about any kind of programming one could want. Personal preferences and household finances determining if you have 10, or 100, 250+ channels available.
If not the T.V., then a computer or "smart" phone, where one can get games/news/banking/information from anywhere in the world or do work with the press or slide of a button. Most will charge those modern electronic devices by plugging them into an abundant supply of electricity that is available anytime you want it 24x7 (save for short term power outages).
The list goes on and on. Today's America is far more decadent and individuals far more "wealthy" that our predecessors of the mid to late 17 or 1800's were for their times. As awful, unlawful and in many cases treasonous as the left has become ...there is no way people are putting all of our modern decadence aside to take on any form of significant marching (or taking up arms).
The time is not yet ripe, but that tipping point is approaching so long as Trump fight's mostly alone at the federal level. When will it happen? Certainly not days or months. But years? Decades? Time will tell.
Trump and the Congressional campaign committees need to hammer on this EVERY DAY! Let the vast, apathetic, middle understand that the Dems are all about power at any price, that they’ll let a bunch of Turd World illegals decide how we do things here, and screw all of us so long as the Dems have power.
“It wont pass the Senate.”
You sure?
I’m still looking for someone to say this thread is a joke. Knew this was coming but not this soon.
“as we hold the Senate”
Whistling past the cemetery? First it’s the local school board so they can infect the kids. Then it’s the city council and county officials so welcome Sharia Law. Then it’s the state offices to get their candidate in line to run for POTUS. Obama will look positively like a stars and stripes waving conservative by the time they’re finished.
Flushing the nation down the toilet because they are sworn to oppose Trump at every turn??
Just like who was that? who was hoping for a depression, knowing it would hurt many people, because he felt Trump needed to be out of office.
WOW...hope this is FAKE news....

The title is a bit misleading. Its about something bigger than AOC, but AOC is just the beginning."
A compelling video.
Perhaps why Pelosi (?) released information on Occasional Cortex & her Chief of Staff that...if there was "equal justice" would put the two of them behind bars for real campaign violations.
ALL OF THEM...............................
So the marxists just voted to make illegality legal.
Country no more.
Naive? As early as the 1820s the Demons allowed non-citizens to vote in some states they controlled.
There is no constitutional requirement that voters be citizens. There are few requirements at all addressing electoral eligibility.

An interesting, informative video that should be shared. Thanks Cuban leaf for posting it!
Then let there be blood.
The Dems arent just adversaries; they are the enemy.
This was all political Kabuki theater.....................They know it has no chance of passing for now. Virtue signalling at its finest....................
