AOC says that illegal aliens are her constituents. You have to wonder what people in her district think of her now. Her polling numbers are going through the floor and we anticipate with bated breath, the day she finally gets one of her facts right.
AOC was grilling Wilbur Ross on the citizenship question he wants to include on the 2020 census. By including that question, the federal government would shell out a lot less money and illegal aliens would not figure into the counts for the Electoral College.
It would also make voter fraud harder because you would know how many eligible voters there are and you could not add unlimited ghost votes.
The self-identified socialist attempted to grill Ross for his communication with former Kansas Secretary of State Kris Kobach, who is known for his strict stance against illegal immigration and voter fraud.
Ocasio-Cortez explained that Kobach had talks with members of President Donald Trump’s administration about adding a citizenship question to the 2020 census.
“Kobach said, ‘I raised the issue with the president shortly after he was inaugurated’ and ‘he was absolutely interested in this,’” Ocasio-Cortez told Ross.
Ross acknowledged his talk with Kobach, but Ocasio-Cortez quickly cut him off so she could continue her rant.
“Mr. Kobach later sent an email to you on July 14, writing that the lack of the citizenship question ‘leads to the problem that aliens who do not actually reside in the United States are still counted for congressional apportionment services,’” Ocasio-Cortez said.
