Radical District Attorneys have positioned themselves for conflict with the federal government by preventing the enforcement of immigration law at polling places, going so far as to promise they will arrest ICE agents for arresting illegal aliens. They have an ally in Virginia Governor Abigail Spanberger.
Fox News reports:
[In] an executive order signed on Tuesday, Spanberger is asking state employees to get federal agents to produce a valid warrant on “property of the Commonwealth” and instructs them to “not permit” federal agents [to use] those areas as staging or processing locations.
The order would include polling sites.
Hans von Spakovsky, a constitutional scholar with Advancing American Freedom, observes that “no warrant is required under federal immigration law to detain individuals.”
Yet Virginia is not alone:
In New York, Democratic Gov. Kathy Hochul is asking lawmakers to pass legislation that would ban ICE from entering schools, libraries, polling locations and homes without a judicial warrant.
Massachusetts tried something similar.
Other than lame accusations of “intimidation,” Democrats have made no attempt to explain why they are particularly opposed to the enforcement of immigration law at polling places unless they want illegal aliens to illegally vote.
