Mississippi Secretary Of State Challenges Biden's Immigration Policies

Joe Biden U.S. President Joe Biden holds an event about the economy, at the White House in Washington

Mississippi Secretary of State recently penned a letter to the Biden administration, expressing concerns over an executive order that he believes could facilitate illegal immigrants registering to vote. He emphasized that the issue at hand is about control and maintaining power, which he views as detrimental to the country. The Secretary of State urged the Justice Department to cease enforcement of the order to prevent any potential negative impact.

In response to these claims, Homeland Security Secretary Alejandro Mayorkas refuted the allegations, stating that it is not the policy of the Biden administration to allow a large influx of migrants across the border to influence electoral dynamics. Mayorkas emphasized the importance of relying on facts rather than rhetoric to address such matters.

Congresswoman Nancy Mays weighed in on the discussion, highlighting concerns about potential implications of allowing illegal immigrants to participate in elections. She pointed out that some municipalities have expressed interest in granting voting rights to illegal immigrants and raised the issue of including the population of illegal immigrants in census data used for determining congressional districts.

Mays suggested that there may be a broader agenda to alter the demographic landscape of the country by permitting the entry of illegal immigrants through the southern border. She underscored the significance of addressing these issues to ensure the integrity of the electoral process and the representation of congressional districts.
