Feenstra Requests Answers from Department of Justice over Lack of Prosecutions of Illegal Immigrants Registering to Vote in American Elections

WASHINGTON, D.C. – Today, U.S. Rep. Randy Feenstra (R-Hull) helped send a letter to U.S. Attorney General Merrick Garland requesting answers from the Department of Justice over instances of illegal immigrants registering to vote and the lack of prosecutions of illegal immigrants who have attempted to register to vote or have unlawfully voted in American elections.

“Illegal immigrants have no right to vote in American elections, and those who are found guilty of attempting to register to vote or actually voting in our elections must be prosecuted to the fullest extent of the law. Regrettably, it appears that Attorney General Garland and the Department of Justice have taken little – if any – action to protect the integrity of our elections,” said Rep. Feenstra. “That’s why I joined my colleagues in requesting clear answers from the DOJ about its work to prevent illegal immigrants from voting in our elections and holding those who violate our laws accountable. We must do everything in our power to ensure that only American citizens vote in American elections.”
