Steve Cortes, founder of the League of American Workers (LAW), said today that Wisconsin U.S. Sen. Tammy Baldwin “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. Fellow Wisconsin U.S. Sen. Ron Johnson (R) voted for the measure.

“Senator Johnson understands that he represents the US citizens who sent him to Washington," Cortes told The Sconi. "Unfortunately the valid voters of Wisconsin cannot count on Senator Baldwin, who prioritizes a radical open borders agenda that counts illegal aliens the same as citizens for representation."

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. 

Baldwin 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.
