House to Vote on GOP Bill Banning Noncitizen Voting in DC

Republicans aim to challenge Democrats on election security ahead of November elections

  • The proposed bill seeks to overturn a DC law allowing noncitizens to vote in local elections.
  • House Democrats are being urged to oppose the bill, which follows a similar effort last year.
  • Republicans link the bill to broader concerns about illegal immigration and election integrity.
  • A previous attempt to pass the bill succeeded in the House but stalled in the Senate.
  • The measure, if passed, faces a likely veto from President Biden.
