He’s not a citizen. Would you send him home?

Yes, if he ever even thought of voting...

US Constitution, Section 4.

The United States shall guarantee to every state in this union a republican form of government, and shall protect each of them against invasion

That dusty old piece of paper?? Who pays attention to that thing anymore?....

Obviously, no one.

They’re really not going to like when we finally start ignoring it too. Those pesky amendments means slavery is back on the table!

So the traitor and communist slut Tatiana Sanchez is worried about the immigration status of her alien invaders. Good.

Which is exactly why illegal aliens should not be counted in the census. Why should my representation in Congress be diluted by a non-citizen foreign national?


To answer your question, because the Constitution requires it.

“Representatives and direct Taxes shall be apportioned among the several States which may be included within this Union, according to their respective Numbers, which shall be determined by adding to the whole Number of free Persons...”

Since illegal aliens aren’t slaves or untaxed Indians, they get counted.

He can’t vote. He’s not a citizen. We’re talking about the census. Try to stay on topic.
