TV ad claims NY’s Prop 1 ballot measure will aid illegal immigration, non-citizen voting
Story by Carl Campanile, Vaughn Golden • 10h
A hard-hitting TV ad claims a New York ballot measure meant to enshrine abortion rights in the state constitution will also benefit illegal immigrants and “open the door” to allowing non-citizens to vote in New York elections.
“The border is broken. New York is paying the price. And Proposal 1 would make it worse,” the narrator warns in the 30-second ad, paid for by the Vote No on Prop 1 Committee.
“This isn’t about equal rights. It’s about special rights for illegal immigrants,” the narrator says.
The message plays over footage of migrants storming the border and even stomping on a police officer.
The ad notes that the text of the proposed constitutional amendment would provide equal rights protections based on “national origin” — which critics claim could “block local efforts to deal with the migrant crisis, give illegals a constitutional right to taxpayer benefits and open the door to non-citizens voting.”
