The New York Supreme Court has struck down a New York City law, passed by Democrats late last year, that sought to give municipal voting rights to nearly a million foreign nationals.

The lawsuit noted that the New York State Constitution expressly states that voting rights are a privilege reserved for American “citizens.”

Local governments, including city governments, must be elected by the people, which is defined as citizens under Article II.

It’s a family-friendly event that livens up my sisters neighborhood every June (except the last two). Why call for defiance instead? Joy is what we all want. We don’t need constant protesting. Apparently not everyone identifies themselves as gay. There are people with traditional values. Why is the gay culture instilled so fiercefully?
