of records from the District of Columbia explaining to illegal aliens
and other noncitizens how they can register to vote in local
elections.
The records came in response to an April 12, 2024, FOIA request for:
* Materials presented and/or provided at the training;
* Communications advertising/promoting the training; and
* Materials provided to participants/attendees after the training.
On April 10, 2024, DC held a training

titled ”Non-Citizen Voting Education Virtual Training” in which DC
announced noncitizen voting would begin in 2024.
A PowerPoint presentation explains:
> Non-US citizen residents of the District of Columbia can vote in
> local elections under the Local Resident Voting Rights Amendment Act
> of 2022. Non-US citizen residents can vote in District elections for
> the offices of Mayor, Attorney General, Chairman or member(s) of the
> DC Council, member(s) of the State [sic] Board of Education, or
> Advisory Neighborhood Commissioner(s) Non-US citizen residents
> cannot vote for Federal Offices
>
> To register to vote in the District of Columbia as a non-citizen,
> you must: Be at least 17 years old and 18 years old by the next
> General Election; Maintain residency in the District of Columbia for
> at least 30 days prior to the election in which you intend to vote;
> Not claim voting residence or the right to vote in any state,

In 2023 the DC Council

the District of Columbia Election Code of 1955 to expand the
definition of the term qualified elector to include otherwise eligible
noncitizen residents, including illegal aliens.
According to

noncitizens to vote, among them San Francisco and Oakland, California,
along with some cities in Maryland and Vermont. In February, a state
appeals court ruled a similar New York City law violates the state
constitution.

a step further than those jurisdictions, though, by extending the
franchise to undocumented immigrants.
The District’s action was

by congressional Republicans. but they failed to overturn the measure.
Illegal aliens and noncitizens should not vote in any elections. That
Congress allows the votes of citizens to be legally stolen by illegal
aliens in our nation’s capital is inexcusable.

on the Biden administration latest back-door amnesty for yet another
category of illegal aliens:

> So-called Dreamers specifically do not qualify for
