U.S. Sen. Katie Britt (R-Montgomery) is strongly condemning President Joe Biden’s support of a bill that would give illegal immigrants the right to vote in Washington, D.C.

The D.C. City Council voted 12-1 last year to advance a bill that gives non-citizens the ability to vote in local elections.

Britt told Fox News Digital that D.C. and other Democrat-run municipalities are “diluting the value of American citizenship.”

D.C. would even allow official agents of the Chinese Communist Party and other foreign adversaries to vote in local elections in our nation’s capital, when their stated interests run counter to America’s interests.

The Republican-controlled House passed a resolution 260-162, with 42 Democrats in support, showing their disapproval of the D.C. Council’s decision.

The Biden administration responded to the resolution, saying it was denial of “true self-governance,” and evidence that D.C. “deserves statehood.”

“The Biden administration should be ashamed,” Britt said. “This is a flagrant failure of the president to uphold his oath of office to ‘preserve, protect and defend the Constitution of the United States.’

“Quite simply, he has chosen to pander to the far-left wing of the Democratic Party instead of advancing America’s interests.”

Britt said letting illegals vote is “effectively disenfranchising hardworking American citizens, insulting those American citizens who came to our country legally and took the time and effort to go through the citizenship process, and undermining faith in our entire electoral system.”

She also believes it would be a threat to national security.

“D.C. would even allow official representatives of the Chinese Communist Party and other foreign adversaries to vote in local elections in our nation’s capital,” she said, “when their stated interests run counter to America’s interests. This is a dangerous, illogical policy that Congress has a duty to block.”

The senator believes this is just more evidence that Biden has no plan to secure the border.

“The president failed to own this crisis during his State of the Union,” she said. “And this latest move by his administration makes it crystal clear he has no interest in solutions to the crisis.”
