Senator Tom Cotton (R-Arkansas) announced on Thursday that he will soon introduce a joint resolution formally disapproving of the District of Columbia Council approving legislation that would let illegal immigrants vote in D.C. local elections. Rep. James Comer (KY-01) introduced the joint resolution in the House.
“Allowing illegal immigrants to vote is an insult to every voter in America. Every single Democrat should be on the record about whether they support this insane policy,” said Sen. Cotton.
If passed by the House and Senate, and signed by the President, the joint resolution would prevent the D.C. council’s proposed legislation from going into effect. The joint resolution can be found here.
