Original Note:
In 1996, Congress passed the Illegal Immigration Reform and Immigrant Responsibility Act, which prohibits all noncitizens from voting in federal elections. However, this same law allows states to decide whether or not noncitizens can vote in state and local elections. https://ballotpedia.org/Laws_permitting_noncitizens_to_vote_in_the_United_States#Federal_law_on_voting_and_citizenship
