Another fucking lie. Nobody voted to allow any illegals to vote.
Since when are people wanting to become citizens equal to letting
illegals vote?

This has always how we've allowed non-citizens to become citizens.
It's perfectly legal, and normal.

The difference is of course that we're talking about ILLEGALS - not
those who were admitted through the legal immigration system.

The latter have always been eligible at some point for naturalization

My late father was an American who became naturalized in Canada - he
never voted before his naturalization, he always did afterwards at

Thanny was talking about Schumer.
Schumer didn't say the word "illegal".

No, Shit Shoes, this thread has nothing to do with Schumer. I'm talking
about congressional Democrats voting to repeal a DC law that prohibits
non-citizens from voting.

Are you sure? I thought the DC law allowing non-citizens to vote and run
for local office had passed the DC council in 2022 and was in effect. As
far as I know, any immigrant would benefit from its provisions regardless
of green card status.

The House voted to repeal the law. 210 Republicans plus 52 Democrats voted

 You're right. I got it reversed.
 But the point remains. My comments here had nothing to do with Schumer.
 

He's lying about Democrats wanting to get illegals to vote.

If they don't want foreign nationals voting in our elections, why did
