WASHINGTON, D.C. – Today, Representative John James (MI-10) voted in favor of H.R. 192, which prohibits non-citizens from voting in elections. Amidst the surge of illegal immigration that has occurred under President Joe Biden with over 10 million illegal border crossings since 2021, this bill assures that American citizens, not illegal immigrants, are the only ones able to vote in elections. The legislation passed the House of Representatives with bipartisan support. Rep. James issued the following statement following the passage of the legislation: “Today, the House of Representatives took a clear stand against non-citizens swaying United States elections. Joe Biden’s border crisis has allowed over 10 million illegal immigrants to cross our borders, with a vast majority not being removed. It’s clear that Joe Biden and The Radical Left are attempting to exploit this border catastrophe to buy votes however they can. House Republicans, alongside 52 Democrats, unequivocally showed that only American citizens should have a say in American elections.” ### |
