House Democrats have asked Defense Secretary Lloyd Austin to guarantee that overseas Americans, including those serving in the armed forces, retain their right to participate in U.S. elections.
Well, at least the final agenda was more or less stated. They more or less said that US citizens who do not set foot in the country often enough should not be considered US citizens therefore not allowed to vote. That’s absolutely asinine.
Imagine having balls to say to a soldier’s face, a person who is giving their life for their country, that because they don’t station in the US and they’re stationed outside of the US they don’t get a vote in the government election. The same government they are risking their life for.
