New York City Pushes Voting Rights for Foreign Citizens

The New York City council is considering a measure that would allow nearly 1 million foreign citizens to vote.

A recent editorial on Fox News slams this move, and rejects the description of these 808,000 individuals as "non-citizens":

Rather than non-citizens, these people are foreign citizens. While they are not American citizens, they remain citizens of the foreign nations from whence they came—Mexico, Haiti, Russia, Singapore, New Zealand, and dozens more. 

The New York City Council aims to dilute the local votes of American citizens by extending the franchise to 808,000 foreign citizens. This would include letting approximately 117,500 citizens of communist China select the mayors, City Council members, district attorneys, and other officials of America's most-populous municipality. 

Not only does this proposal disincentivize foreign citizens from becoming U.S. citizens, it allows them to set the course for one of the most important cities in our nation. It is laughable to suggest that this won't have serious implications on the rest of the country.

The right to vote is a privilege and it should continue to be reserved for United States citizens.
