The Constitution’s command to count “every person” as part of the Census is not ambiguous and not optional.
Trump is renewing his attacks on the Census and a fair count.
We will fight this. You can too by making sure you are counted. https://t.co/JR4KK8n0MA— Adam Schiff (@RepAdamSchiff) July 21, 2020
We’ve been clear that we will take strong enforcement action on behavior that has the potential to lead to offline harm. In line with this approach, this week we are taking further action on so-called ‘QAnon’ activity across the service.— Twitter Safety (@TwitterSafety) July 22, 2020
We will permanently suspend accounts Tweeting about these topics that we know are engaged in violations of our multi-account policy, coordinating abuse around individual victims, or are attempting to evade a previous suspension — something we’ve seen more of in recent weeks.— Twitter Safety (@TwitterSafety) July 22, 2020
In addition, we will:
1⃣ No longer serve content and accounts associated with QAnon in Trends and recommendations
2⃣ Work to ensure we’re not highlighting this activity in search and conversations
3⃣ Block URLs associated with QAnon from being shared on Twitter— Twitter Safety (@TwitterSafety) July 22, 2020
These actions will be rolled out comprehensively this week. We will continue to review this activity across our service and update our rules and enforcement approach again if necessary.— Twitter Safety (@TwitterSafety) July 22, 2020

They’re being counted. They won’t be used to determine the Congressional Districts.
Fortunately we will have a count of citizens, and an a count of non-citizens, and a count of illegals.
Besides, this is NOT the language of the constitution nor amendment 14.
-NO law abridging the privileges of the citizens and equal protection is allowed.
-Right to vote in Federal Elections if in any way abridged, the “basis of representation therein shall be reduced in the proportion” ie ratio to the whole number of citizens of voting age.
I would say that counting illegals is disenfranchising and abridging the rights of the citizens to appropriate representation in Congress-and hence the illegals should not be counted in the apportioning of representatives.
IANAL and I didn't stay at a Holiday Inn either.
