President Joe Biden reversed an order by former President Donald Trump that excluded illegal aliens in the census numbers used to determine each state’s share of congressional seats and Electoral College votes.
On his first day in office, President Biden reversed a Trump order so that illegal aliens will now be required to be included in the census numbers used to decide how many lawmakers represent each state in Congress.
In December, Biden foreshadowed this move when he claimed that the U.S. Constitution “clearly requires” illegal aliens to be counted for the purpose of apportioning congressional districts in states.
But in a 6-3 decision last month, the U.S. Supreme Court threw out a legal challenge by the American Civil Liberties Union (ACLU) and the state of New York against Trump’s effort to exclude illegal aliens from congressional apportionment counts.
The United States Census Bureau has already stopped tallying the number of illegal aliens living in the U.S., but now it appears that this will no longer be the case.
States that are expected to lose congressional seats when the illegal alien population is added in congressional apportioning include Alabama, Arkansas, Georgia, Idaho, Indiana, Iowa, Kentucky, Louisiana, Mississippi, Missouri, North Carolina, Oklahoma, South Carolina, Tennessee, Utah, and West Virginia.
Some other areas of Trump’s legacy that Biden targeted on Wednesday involve issues surrounding immigration, the environment, and the coronavirus.
President Biden’s executive orders on Day One include the halting of border wall construction, the reversal of the Trump administration’s barring travel from seven Muslim-majority countries, as well as stopping the withdrawal from the World Health Organization (WHO) and making Dr. Anthony Fauci the head of the delegation to the WHO.

A small ray of sunshine is that a lot of illegals avoided this census because they were very afraid of getting on the radar screen, not knowing if Trump would be reelected and outing themselves.
SCOTUS might stop this, going on their votes in the past on the matter.
Isn’t the census over until 2030?
But they keep counting until 2029 for some reason........
I sure miss President Trump. How quickly the Biden Machine is working to destroy this country.
It really Joebama, Obama machine is behind the scenes.
People without passports get counted. Amazing.
Probaly afraid that all their illegal homies living with them would get exposed.
Fed.gov should be sued for this
Well, somebody needs to take it to the SCOTUS.
Wonder who might might stand in that gap to do it?
Waiting...
They were required by statute to make the result “official” by Dec 31. 2020. But, laws are for losers.
Jackass. Biden can go to H**l.
The problem is that no one will have standing.
Nope, no way, no how.
How DARE an American citizen question the new overlord!
Democrats are pure evil. Their goal is to eliminate the opposition by repression. The democrats are installing themselves as gatekeepers, the arbiters of law.
The constitution is no longer relevant or the law... Democrats are now the law.
Maybe.
The dems are going to pack the court.
They won’t be stopped.
(Sheesh... I’ve gone from full frontal optimism to complete pessimism.)
Do’t worry.
We will have 30 million + new “citizens” before you can blink.
Since the number of Representatives is locked in at 435, American citizens will be disenfranchised whenever a Representative is added, to California, for example, and another state has to lose one. However, Republicans in Congress keep that theft hid from voters. It is voter fraud.
"Justa calla me Juan Bidenito."
