Not to disagree with you but the Constitution requires counting persons. It says nothing about counting only citizens. Of course the Founders never imagined an uncontrolled invasion on the scale we’re experiencing. But then there are a lot of things about modern America that the Founders would have a lot of trouble believing.

“Illegal aliens should not be part of the census for representation.”

sorry, but on this we are kind of stuck.
The Constitution reads, as amended: “counting the whole number of persons in each State”. It doesn’t restrict to Citizens.

One of the principal reason why they shouldn’t be here in the first place!
