Sen. Tom Cotton of Arkansas filed a resolution Wednesday seeking to block the D.C. government from implementing a plan that allows illegal immigrants to vote in local elections.

The disapproval resolution, signed by more than two dozen fellow Senate Republicans, mirrors a House measure from House Oversight and Accountability Committee Chairman James Comer of Kentucky and leverages Congress’ constitutional right to review and reject bills passed by the D.C. Council.
