CONGRESS CHRISTINE: RETURNS MONDAY FOR THE FIRST TIME IN WEEKS, AND THEIR WORK IS CUT OUT FOR THEM. LAWMAKERS MUST AVOID A GOVERNMENT SHUTDOWN BY EARLY OCTOBER, BUT HOUSE SPEAKER MIKE PLAN TO A MUST PASS SPENDING BILL REQUIRING PROOF OF CITIZENSHIP TO VOTE. FOX NEWS CHAD PERGRAM EXPLAINS FROM : PROOF, NO VOTE.
HOUSE SPEAKER MIKE JOHNSON WANTS PEOPLE TO DEMONSTRATE THEY ARE A CITIZEN BEFORE VOTING. HE AIMS TO ATTACH THIS TO AN INTERIM EARLY NEXT YEAR. THE HOUSE PASSED A SIMILAR VOTING BILL OVER THE SUMMER.
WE ALL KNOW INTUITIVELY THAT A LOT OF ILLEGALS ARE VOTING IN FEDERAL SOMETHING THAT IS EASILY PROVABLE. WE DON'T HAVE THAT NUMBER. THIS LEGISLATION WILL ALLOW US TO DO EXACTLY THAT.
IT WILL PREVENT THAT FROM HAPPENING. CONSERVATIVES BELIEVE CITIZEN BEFORE VOTING. THEY POINT TO A FLOOD OF ILLEGAL IMMIGRATION, AND NOW SOME CITIES ALLOW ANYONE TO VOTE IN LOCAL ELECTIONS, BUT NOT FOR FEDERAL GUARDRAILS COULD LEAD TO MIX UPS.
OAKLAND SAN FRANCISCO, NEW YORK, D. C, A BUNCH OF OTHER JURISDICTIONS HAVE STARTED TO REALLY ACTIVELY TAKE EFFORTS TO REGISTER NON-CITIZENS TO VOTE, ALLEGEDLY JUST FOR STATE AND LOCAL ELECTIONS. BUT IT REALLY IS HARD TO TELL THE DIFFERENCE.
STILL, IT'S ABOUT THE MATH. IT'S HOUSE, BUT EVEN IF THE HOUSE APPROVES THE PACKAGE, IT LIKELY FACES A BUZZSAW IN THE DEMOCRATICALLY RUN SENATE. THIS IS A SOLUTION LOOKING FOR A PROBLEM.
I MEAN, THERE IS NO EVIDENCE THAT UNDOCUMENTED MIGRANTS VOTE. REPUBLICANS WANT A SPENDING BILL, WHICH RENEWS CURRENT MONEY WITH NO NEW ADD ONS THROUGH EARLY NEXT YEAR. HERE'S WHY CONSERVATIVES ARE REPUBLICAN HOUSE AND SENATE AND FORMER PRESIDENT TRUMP BACK IN THE WHITE HOUSE.
