Mickelson is a 45-time winner on the PGA Tour and is now active on the LIV Golf circuit. In addition to being a golf great, he is also known for his straightforward opinions on current affairs.
On Friday, March 21, Wall Street Mav reported that the New York Court of Appeals had terminated the City’s law permitting non-citizens to vote. Mickelson welcomed the decision and gave his two cents on the move.
Phil Mickelson has voiced his support for the New York Court’s historic mandate of banning non-citizens from voting. He also added that giving non-citizens voting rights was a threat to the country and those who allowed it needed to be charged for treason.
Earlier, New York Court of Appeals Chief Judge Rowan Wilson announced in a 21-page ruling that New York City’s law was unconstitutional. The legal battle went on for more than three years after the City Council attempted to expand the right to vote in local elections to noncitizen residents in 2021.
