It’s simple: People who shouldn’t be in this country in the first place should have no role in determining how many congressional seats each state receives.
Absolutely true!
The troubling situation regarding the results of the bogus 2020 census conducted during the fog of the COVID-19 pandemic crisis is no exception. Similar to the 2020 presidential election, many critical questions remain and important policy changes are long overdue.
A healthy republic must have strong borders, secure elections and an accurate census. The time is now to drive the necessary reforms for the census and move forward with a more accurate count of Americans. This is all about saving America. Mr. Trump and his team should be commended for raising awareness about the train wreck of the current process. Getting the census right is an absolute must, and the issue hasn’t received nearly the attention it deserves. Until now.
According to the U.S. Census Bureau, “apportionment is the process of dividing the 435 memberships, or seats, in the U.S. House of Representatives among the 50 states, based on the state population counts that result from each decennial census … those results will determine the amount of political representation each state will have in Congress for the next 10 years.”
Make no mistake: A flawed census has enormously dangerous consequences and is totally unacceptable. Mr. Trump kick-started the discussion by posting on Truth Social earlier this month: “I have instructed our Department of Commerce to immediately begin work on a new and highly accurate CENSUS based on modern day facts and figures and, importantly, using the results and information gained from the Presidential Election of 2024. People who are in our Country illegally WILL NOT BE COUNTED IN THE CENSUS.”
In Trumpian fashion, the president got straight to the point. He believes illegal immigrants aren’t allowed to vote in our elections and, therefore, shouldn’t be counted in the census. It’s simple: People who shouldn’t be in this country in the first place should have no role in determining how many congressional seats each state receives. Moreover, counting illegals in the census dilutes the voices of American citizens, negatively affects how trillions of taxpayer dollars are spent and puts an enormous strain on entitlement programs, health care and education.
According to Pew Research, the Census Bureau found that its 2020 tabulations “overcounted household populations in eight states while undercounting household populations in six others. The states with overcounts were Delaware, Hawaii, Massachusetts, Minnesota, New York, Ohio, Rhode Island and Utah. Those with undercounts were Arkansas, Florida, Illinois, Mississippi, Tennessee and Texas.”
It doesn’t take a genius to see that blue state representation was boosted and red state representation was hampered. In fact, Vice President J.D. Vance recently said, “If you actually did the census anew right now, you would have 10 additional Republican seats and nine fewer Democrat seats.” It’s plain to see that this grave injustice must be corrected, and without delay.
The American people now understand that the Biden-Harris administration weaponized the federal government across the board to cling to power. It used the justice system to try to destroy Mr. Trump, politicized the federal workforce to help with Democratic voter turnout, deliberately opened the border and broke the law by forgiving billions upon billions of dollars in student loans. So it defies credulity to believe that the census was somehow spared from that administration’s abusive political schemes.
It’s no surprise that Democrats are fighting Mr. Trump and other Republicans on this push for commonsense reform as they do on seemingly every other issue. The left’s opposition to a new census is inextricably linked to its opposition to election integrity laws and U.S. Immigration and Customs Enforcement deportations. Put simply, this is all about Democrats padding their votes at the ballot box and bolstering their numbers in Congress by any means necessary.
Our Founding Fathers and the authors of the 14th Amendment didn’t account for an invasion of millions upon millions of illegal immigrants when discussing the census. It’s time to fix this glaring problem once and for all. Illegal immigrants should no longer be counted because the American people deserve a census that determines congressional representation properly.
Absolutely true!
Fix the flawed U.S. census
President Trump was elected to confront the failed status quo in Washington by enacting his commonsense, “America First” reforms. Whether it’s the open border, out-of-control federal spending, the broken public education system or the crime crisis in the District of Columbia, this president is determined to address all the festering problems, large and small, nagging our country.The troubling situation regarding the results of the bogus 2020 census conducted during the fog of the COVID-19 pandemic crisis is no exception.
