Senator John Barrasso of Wyoming is sounding the alarm over a new Democrat push to classify polling places as sanctuary locations for illegal immigrants, a move he warns would further erode election integrity and public safety.
As reported by Gateway Pundit, Barrasso, the Senate Majority Whip, used a floor speech this week to expose what he called a radical Christmas list of demands from Democrats, who are pressing for these protections instead of agreeing to basic enforcement of immigration law and averting another partial government shutdown. Democrats have come up with a Christmas list of demands, demands designed to appeal to their radical base.
This growing list of Democrat demands makes it almost impossible to remove dangerous illegal immigrants from the streets of our nation, the senator said. Democrats are resisting even the most reasonable attempts to enforce our immigration laws.
According to Barrasso, The more we learn about the demands coming from the minority leader and that party, the less the normal American citizen likes them and thats especially if you are concerned about any safety or any security in the community in which you live. He argued that Democrats are openly prioritizing the comfort of illegal immigrants over the rights and security of American citizens.
The Democrats continually want to make it harder to arrest and remove illegal immigrant criminals, he continued. The so-called sensitive location defined by the Democrats in the past it included places of worship, hospitals, schools, now they want to include in that list polling places, he continued.
Well, think about that. Its an entirely new provision. Polling places have never been included on any list like this before. For conservatives who believe in secure borders, honest elections, and the rule of law, Barrassos warning underscores why Republicans must hold firm against these demands, because the integrity of the ballot box and the future direction of the country are directly on the line.
