If I recall correctly, the question on the census form as to whether one was a legal resident of the US was removed from the census form. I filled the form out several months ago and do not recall seeing that question. If so, then how does one “eliminate” non-legal residents, AKA illegal aliens?
It's about counting illegals.

Another question would be how to comply with the Constitution without counting citizens.
U.S. Const., Amend. 14:
Section 2.Representatives shall be apportioned among the several states according to their respective numbers, counting the whole number of persons in each state, excluding Indians not taxed. But when the right to vote at any election for the choice of electors for President and Vice President of the United States, Representatives in Congress, the executive and judicial officers of a state, or the members of the legislature thereof, is denied to any of the male inhabitants of such state, being twenty-one years of age, and citizens of the United States, or in any way abridged, except for participation in rebellion, or other crime, the basis of representation therein shall be reduced in the proportion which the number of such male citizens shall bear to the whole number of male citizens twenty-one years of age in such state.
If citizens can’t be enumerated, how could the relevant part of Amendment 14 be enforced?
