Days before senators unveiled a immigration bill aimed at slowing illegal immigration, Elon Musk riffed on a common myth
Biden’s strategy is to “get as many illegals in the country as possible” and “legalize them to create a permanent majority.”Migrants who crossed the Rio Grande and entered the U.S. from Mexico are lined up Sept. 23, 2023, for U.S. Customs and Border Protection processing in Eagle Pass, Texas. It can take a decade or longer for an immigrant to become a U.S. citizen, a requirement to vote in federal elections.
"Biden’s strategy is very simple: 1. Get as many illegals in the country as possible. 2. Legalize them to create a permanent majority – a one-party state,","The long-term goal of the so-called ‘Border Security’ bill is enabling illegals to vote! It will do the total opposite of securing the border." Federal law requires citizenship as a condition to vote in national elections. Gaining citizenship can take a decade or longer.
It’s unclear whether the bill has the votes to pass the Senate. House Speaker Mike Johnson, R-La., has said it is dead on arrival.Michelle Mittelstadt, a spokesperson for the nonpartisan Migration Policy Institute, said the new legislation"does not provide any path to citizenship for anyone currently in the country illegally and would not in any way expedite legal permanent residence for any future border arrivals.
The path to U.S. citizenship, which is required for voting in federal elections, can take a decade, so the current influx of immigrants would not lead to a significant number of new voters for many years, if ever.
