Steve Cortes, founder of the League of American Workers (LAW), said today that Georgia U.S. Sens. Jon Ossoff (D) and Raphael Warnock (D) “decided to prioritize illegal aliens” by voting against a measure that would have prohibited illegal aliens from being factored into the count for apportionment of congressional districts and the Electoral College map.
“Senators Ossoff and Warnock clearly decided to prioritize illegal aliens and a radical open borders agenda, by voting to allow representation from illegals in the state of Georgia,” Cortes told Peach Tree Times. “For our street safety and our prosperity, these illegals must be deported, and not counted as citizens.”
The measure, introduced by U.S. Sen. Bill Hagerty (R-Tenn.) was introduced as an amendment to H.R. 4366, Consolidated Appropriations Act, and was voted down on a vote of 45-51.
Ossoff and Warnock joined every U.S. Senate Democrat, other than Sen. Joe Manchin (D-W.Va.), who did not vote, in voting to kill the measure, reported the Grand Canyon Times.
Hagerty said in a statement that, "Democrats’ unanimous opposition to this commonsense measure confirms that they’re using illegal aliens and sanctuary cities to increase their political power.”
Cortes is a political advisor and commentator. He previously traded global currencies and interest rates for 25 years for large international hedge funds. He has been an on-air broadcaster for CNBC, Fox News, and CNN. Cortes founded LAW in 2022 to conduct research and develops proposals on public policies impacting American workers and the economy.
