NEW YORK (AP) — More than 800,000 noncitizens and “Dreamers” in New York City will have access to the ballot box — and could vote in municipal elections as early as next year — after Mayor Eric Adams allowed legislation to automatically become law Sunday. Opponents have vowed to challenge the new law, which the City Council approved a month ago. Unless a judge halts its implementation, New York City is the first major U.S. city to grant widespread municipal voting rights to noncitizens.

Not sure what the benefit is to be a citizen, seems like noncitizens are getting every benefit in the book.
This is a next level of crazy and I’m speechless.

Last I looked they already were...
Now they just have to vote for it to be legal.
That isn't how you change the Constitution.

Non-citizens cannot vote for President, they haven't done anything.
