Eleven Illinois members of the US House of Representatives voted Thursday against a bill to prohibit noncitizens of the United States from voting in municipal elections in Washington, D.C.
They are Democratic Reps. Sean Casten, Danny Davis, Bill Foster, Chuy Garcia, Robin Kelly, Raja Krishnamoorthi, Mike Quigley, Delia Ramirez, Jan Schakowski, Brad Schneider and Lauren Underwood.
All other Illinois House members in both parties voted for of the bill. The House passed the bill by 262 to 143, with nearly three-quarters of Democrats voting in favor.
The bill applies only to municipal elections in the District of Columbia, where Congress has power to set such rules. Federal law prohibits noncitizens from voting in any federal-level election in D.C. and elsewhere. Sixteen towns and cities across the country allow noncitizens to vote in local elections, over which the states have sole authority.
The bill now goes to the Democrat-controlled Senate where it is reportedly unlikely to pass, which would mean that a D.C. ordinance allowing noncitizens to vote would stay in effect.

Audio and summary 
If this bill passes, say goodbye to local control over all Illinois parks and expect to see open drug and alcohol use, needles, no sanitation and fire hazards, but no ordinary park users.
Lauren Underwood? What the hell is wrong with you people in Naperville.
Napeville is D+30 so that’s like a 65D/35D split. It’s also 25% foreign born and hardcore leftist. So yeah, not surprising at all.
The lunacy continues. Open borders; non citizen voting; trillion dollar deficits; inflation; etc., etc.
The wheels are not coming off just yet but the bearings are squealing.
I wonder what happens if the non citizens end up helping to vote in a (R)…?
Then they will change the law so they can’t vote again.
Wow that’s a good one.
Comrades Lenin and Stalin have very big smiles on their faces.
Hey Jan, you wrinkled prune faced old hag, why don’t you and the rest of these idiots step in front of the next train? Do the country a favor, for once in your pathetic life, and take one for the team. You can do it!
Heck, she’d *scare* the train, lol…!!!
It’s in the Constitution that a person must be a citizen to vote. The far left is against the Constitution?
While I don’t want to allow non-citizens to vote in any elections, it is not unconstitutional for them to vote in local or state elections, only federal elections.
The entire left is against the constitution
Worse than idiocy, this notion guts the concept of citizenship and sovereignty. Why have any laws at all?
Remember – the left just wants the votes to stay in office
Yes, the left controlled nearly all of the federal government, with brief periods of republican control, between the 1930’s and the 1990’s. This was a direct result of unfettered immigration between the mid 1860’s until WW1. The native born americans voted Republican while the immigrants and their children transformed our major cities into Democrat hellholes. Look at the solid blue for decades between those years above. That’s entirely the result of poor immigrants voting Democrat beginning in the Great Depression onwards. Also not mentoined on this chart is that the majorities in congress would make even Putin blush. Democrats had… Read more »
