Political Quotes

“the SAVE America Act answers one simple question: Should noncitizens be able to cast a vote in American elections? The answer is clearly, incontrovertibly, no. Indeed, the right to cast a vote in American elections is something that belongs to American citizens alone. It is a precious right. The American people understand this. And you know what? The American people agree. More than 90 percent of Republicans, more than 80 percent of Independents, and more than 70 percent of Democrats want proof of citizenship--a valid ID--in order to vote in American elections. Why wouldn't they? With such a groundswell of support from the American people, it makes me wonder why my colleagues on the other side of the aisle don't support voter ID. You must ask yourself: Who are they representing? They can't be representing their constituents. If they were, they would be screaming from the rooftops: Pass voter ID into law today. But they are not. They are not. Then you ask yourself: Who is their constituency? Is it illegal aliens? Someone in a far-off land they have never met? Are they representing some moneyed interest that are opposed to voter ID? These are all valid questions, but the bottom line is this: The opponents of the SAVE America Act are not representing the will of the voters, including those of their own party. Voters across this Nation are not being represented.”
