N.Y. lawmaker aims to give voting rights to illegal immigrants

(Reuters) - A New York lawmaker wants to grant many of the rights of citizenship to millions of illegal immigrants and non-citizen residents, including the right to vote in local and state elections, under a bill introduced on Monday.

The New York Is Home Act is the first bill in the United States that would provide such broad rights to non-citizens who can show they have lived and paid taxes in New York for at least three years, according to the bill's sponsor, state Senator Gustavo Rivera.

"Nearly 3 million people in the state of New York currently reside here and make New York their home, but can't fully participate in civic, political, and economic life," Rivera, a Democrat who represents the Bronx in New York City, said in a telephone interview.

He described the bill as a response to the stagnation of immigration reform efforts in the U.S. Congress.

Really?

You don't think they are bringing in all these illegals for nothing, do you?

This will play into BO's hand so he can sign amnesty by executive order for humanitarian reasons and give these illegals the right to vote.

Bye, bye GOP ...............

Maybe you should brush up a bit!

And, please tell what you think is going to be the outcome of this flood of illegals if not to provide the Dems with a larger voting base!
