Remember, a vote for a Dimocrat at ANY level in this country, is a vote to attack American citizenship. These people are making it clearer every single day, that they could care less if a person is in this country legally or not. They see absolutley no difference whatsoever.
Undocumented immigrants could serve on California boards under new bill
Undocumented immigrants could serve on California boards under new bill
Immigrants residing in California illegally would be able to serve on all state and local boards and commissions under a proposal introduced in the state Senate on Monday.
Senate Bill 174 amends existing state law to allow the appointment of any resident over the age of 18 to a civil office regardless of citizenship or immigration status. California law currently states that someone is incapable of holding office if they are not a citizen at the time of their appointment.
“California is stronger when we utilize talents of all our residents, and opening state and local boards and commissions to every Californian will allow us to better serve our diverse communities," Sen. Ricardo Lara, D-Bell Gardens and the bill's author, said in a statement. “Undocumented Californians are our neighbors, co-workers and parents, and as lawmakers we can’t make good policy if their voices are left out of the discussion."
