President Trump announced Thursday he would sign an executive order to obtain data about the U.S. citizenship and non-citizenship status of everyone living in the United States.

In a Rose Garden ceremony, Trump said he would drop efforts to include a citizenship question on the 2020 census. Instead, he'll sign an executive order directing all U.S. agencies to provide the Department of Commerce all information they have on the U.S. citizenship, non-citizenship and immigration status.

"We have great knowledge in many of our agencies," Trump said, flanked by Attorney General William Barr and Commerce Secretary Wilbur Ross. "We will leave no stone unturned."

"The whole thing is maddening. BTW, are all of our US courts totally corrupt??"

Yeppers, commies are now everywhere in our government.. Our Congress and Senate have been totally compromised by way of blackmail by people like Jeffrey Epstein and others as well.. I'm sure he isn't the only one working night and day in an effort to subvert our government and our way of life... The educational system is already completely lost.. That's why the so call "Millennials" are as crazy as crap house rats... :(

Can that vote?

The overall number of 435 House seats stays the same. The number of people in the decennial census is divided by 435 to determine the population size of a district. If the population of NY supports two less districts, the other states with increased populations would get a greater numbers of seats in Congress. Simplified version.

I think we’re all forgetting that our president has a Republican Senate on his side to step in and start putting the kabosh on this kind of stuff.

Actually, now that I think of it, there’s a reason we’ve all forgotten that he has a Republican side on his side.

[khelus]

I’d upgrade that to 50 million plus

[kabar]

Many. Illegal aliens get food stamps thru their American born children who are citizens at birth. There are an estimated 4 million anchor babies. The 900,000 DACA recipients can also get government benefits including work permits.

[Recovering Ex-hippie]

Couldn’t figure that one out I thought the same thing why couldn’t they do it the course they will complain about the money

[conservative98]

Canada doesn’t have freedom of speech. So nobody can complain aboot anything.

30 million was the high side estimate before the illegal invasion got out of control. I think 40 million is probably a lot closer now.

You’ve got it. Wile E. Coyote could never resist the next better ACME product, even as each new plot went horribly wrong and blew up in his face.

Evil really is Looney Tunes. So many parallels.

All of that subterfuge only for the malevolent to discover in the end that they were nothing more than an analog for hapless cartoon characters who self-destruct.

Then here comes Bugs Bunny casually chomping on a carrot, saying, “What a maroon.”

[Maris Crane]

Then, let’s just give up and forget the whole thing.

[9YearLurker]

Will we then get the 40 million illegals out of our country?

[100American]

You seem pretty upset by this, I note that on every thread here you show up and vent your spleen about why this is wrong

Me thinks thee doth protest too much

[khelus]

Per Bear Sterns study done in 2005:

1. The number of illegal immigrants in the United States may be as high as 20 million people, more than double the official 9 million people estimated by the Census Bureau.

2. The total number of legalized immigrants entering The United States since 1990 has averaged 962,000 per year. Several credible studies indicate that the number of illegal entries has recently crept up to 3 million per year, triple the authorized figure.

3. Undocumented immigrants are gaining a larger share of the job market, and hold approximately 12 to 15 million jobs in the United States (8% of the total employed)

Apportionment is simply determining how many of the 435 Congressional seats each state will receive. The States will then redistrict their state into the appropriate number of districts. If NY loses 2 seats in Congress it's legislature needs to redistrict the state with 2 less Congressional districts. So yes you would lose 2 Congressmen.

State legislatures may attempt to ensure that lost seats are held by the minority party - exp CA may try to make sure the seats it loses are held by Republicans, but it's not that easy. Illegals tend to be in VERY Democratic areas, so since states need to redistrict by population, and Republican areas would not contain many illegals, it will be hard for them to get rid of Republicans, unless the Republican district abuts a district with lots of illegals.

[MMaschin]

Greater detail and more accurate...

Not sure why your link is "more accurate", it doesn't even contain Barr talking about Alabama v Commerce.
