But what we are talking about in this bill is disenfranchising many of those Americans. It is already a felony for a nonAmerican to vote. Now. when this bill was introduced. the committee made it part of Immigration August. We had hearings around the country. and what we found 2. Pt. 14 September 20. 2006 out was that the issue of socalled illegal aliens voting basically does not occur. As the League of Women Voters has said. the voter fraud addressed by this bill is a rare problem. and the witness in New Mexico said she had never seen it in her entire professional career. And if you think about it. it makes sense. Illegal aliens are sneaking across the border for a job. not to vote. We also got testimony that the impact of this will disproportionately affect poor people and African Americans. In fact. in a Milwaukee study. they found that 78 percent of the African American men aged 18 to 24 had no drivers license.
