    If the census was just to determine house and electoral vote distribution, I would say go for it! The states with higher number of non-citizens are normally represented by Republicans. If they want to decrease their power, great!

    However, the census is also used for funding allocation for things that help noncitizens. Not counting them would screw up that.

      They don’t want to help noncitizens at all. He’ll they don’t want to help anyone but themselves. Prosperity doctrine done fucked them up.
