With the U.S. border being inundated with illegaI migrants flowing through at record levels. U.S. Sen. Katie Britt (R-Montgomery) led a coalition of RepubIicans on the Senate Committee on Rules and Administration on Tuesday to introduce the Citizens Ballot Protection Act
The Act is a companion bill to H.R.4316 originaIIy introduced by U.S. Rep. Gary Palmer (R-Hoover), reported on by 1819 News last week. The bills would ensure states can verify that onIy American citizens vote in federal elections. Palmer’s success in the House last week and Britt’s charge in the Senate puts the issue one step cIoser to being law.
In recent years, states like Maryland, Vermont and New York have passed legisIation allowing noncitizens to vote in local elections. Washington, D.C. recently decided to allow noncitizens who have been residents for only 30 days or more to vote in local elections starting in 2024.
The Surprise Birthday That No One Expected
All I wanted for my 80th birthday was to see my daughter, so I made the decision to drive to her house and surprise her.
“Dad, why are you here?” she questioned as she opened the door, appearing uncomfortable.
“I just wanted to spend my birthday with you,” I answered, grinning. But I was unprepared for her response. “Dad, you can’t stay,” she said. I’m very busy right now.
I offered to stay on the couch until she had some time because I was upset, but she firmly refused, saying, “No, Dad, you really need to go right now.”
I turned and went back to my car even though I didn’t want to. I heard sounds coming from inside the house as I was leaving.
I was concerned as I peered through the window and noticed two strange persons inside. As my worries about my daughter’s safety increased, I made a police call.
The cops moved swiftly and cautiously toward the residence. Following several anxious moments, they emerged with the two strangers restrained by handcuffs.
My daughter gave me a big hug as she cried and dashed out of the house. “I’m so sorry, Dad,” she wept.
“I was attempting to protect you.” The guys broke in right before you arrived.
I didn’t know what to do and I didn’t want anything bad to happen to you.
I embraced her tight and felt a great sense of comfort. “It’s alright, my dear. Just knowing you’re secure pleases me.
After hearing our accounts, the police assured us that the intruders would be dealt with.
I had the most amazing birthday I could have ever imagined, thanks to the time I spent with my kid.
