Episode: Fact Checking The Claim: Are Non-Citizens Really Being Allowed To Vote In American Elections?
Description: New York City's government is fighting in court to allow non-citizens to vote in local elections. NYC is one of several communities to pass laws to allow residents - citizen or not - to vote in races including school boards, city councils and mayors, utility boards, library boards, etc.
In this discussion, Becky Arps from Americans For Citizen Voting explain why they oppose allowing that to happen and why no one should accept claims that non-citizens are/will be voting only in local races.
