The Census should only count citizens. Including noncitizens alters the political representation of the states in the House of Representatives and devalues the votes of citizens. It’s already affected apportionment in the House and the Electoral College. Hans von Spakovsky

Aliens have no right to participate in governing this country, so they shouldn’t be counted for apportionment. More from @HvonSpakovsky here 👇

@HvonSpakovsky 💯 It is completely insane that non-citizens would be counted! It creates a perverse incentive that @TheDemocrats have pursued with a bloodlust. It must end.

@HvonSpakovsky Can we count our sister city (Tokyo 37.4 million population) in our census numbers? I think that would only be fair since non citizens are being counted.

@HvonSpakovsky Not surprising given the bad actors in our government.

@HvonSpakovsky I think you need to both know what’s the entire population for very important economic considerations and analysis but also the number of actual citizens, which can be used for political considerations like apportionment.

@HvonSpakovsky Good luck with that.

@HvonSpakovsky Common sense: only citizens can vote and participate in the political system should influence political representation.

@HvonSpakovsky I'm okay with counting them, but identifying them so they can be excluded from apportionment.

@HvonSpakovsky Fair point—counting only citizens would keep representation tied to actual voters. @CharlesMooreX1 has mentioned how this could shift power in Congress and the Electoral College. It’s a legit debate about fairness in voting weight.

@HvonSpakovsky YES YES a 1000 times yes!!!!
