We will collect all of the information we need to conduct an accurate census and to make responsible decisions about public policy, voting rights, and representation in Congress.
President Donald J. Trump
PROTECTING AMERICAN DEMOCRACY: President Donald J. Trump is taking action to prevent illegal aliens from being counted in the 2020 census for the purpose of apportionment.
President Trump is issuing a memorandum clarifying that illegal aliens are not to be included for the purpose of apportionment of Representatives following the 2020 census.
This follows the President’s order directing the Federal government to collect the information needed to ensure that accurate citizenship data is compiled in connection with the census.
Giving congressional representation and political influence to illegal aliens – people who have blatantly disregarded our laws – would be a perversion of our democratic principles.
Allowing illegal aliens to be counted for the purpose of apportionment could also create perverse incentives – such as potentially rewarding states that encourage violations of Federal immigration law – that would undermine our system of government.
President Trump will never allow our democracy to be eroded by giving congressional representation to illegal aliens when the Constitution does not require it. UPHOLDING CONSTITUTIONAL PRINCIPLES: Excluding illegal aliens for the purpose of apportionment reflects a better understanding of our Constitution and democratic principles.
The Constitution does not specifically define which persons must be included for the purposes of apportionment and requires only that Representatives be apportioned according to what has long been understood to mean the “inhabitants” of each State.
Under the law, Congress and the President are required to make judgments concerning which persons should be considered inhabitants of a State for the purpose of apportionment.
For example, people only temporarily in the United States, such as those only in the country for business or tourism, have long been excluded from this count.
Likewise, overseas military and other Federal personnel have at times been included in and excluded from the populations of states where they maintain homes of record.
As the Supreme Court recognized in Franklin v. Massachusetts, inclusion in the apportionment base may require “more than mere physical presence,” including “some element of allegiance or enduring tie to a place.”
Failure to exclude illegal immigrants for the purposes of apportionment would have major ramifications and could cause some American citizens to be proportionally underrepresented.
Estimates suggest that one State – home to more than 2.2 million illegal aliens – could receive two or three more congressional seats than would otherwise be allocated.
PRIORITIZING AMERICANS: President Trump is always working to put American citizens first.
After years of neglect, President Trump is restoring the rule of law, securing our border, and protecting our Nation’s communities.
The President is reversing disastrous trade deals that shipped our jobs overseas and is replacing them with better deals, like the United States-Mexico-Canada Agreement.
To give American workers first priority in our coronavirus recovery, the President has extended and expanded the suspension of certain visas through the end of the year.
The President is also ensuring that immigrants to our country are self-sufficient and do not strain American’s public welfare or healthcare systems.
THat’s good, less Demsheviks. Of course, without illegals and other non-eligbles voting, (which is going to happen) CA and other states will be electing fewer Demsheviks!
I’m surprised more people aren’t commenting on this. To me it HUGE news. Beaubo, have you seen this? I quoted one of your recent comments above.
Congress critters represent their congressional leaders, not the people. We eliminated the king at the top, and moved them to a slightly lower level
“have you seen this?”
I missed it earlier when you posted, but ended up posting a Reuters article about it. (http://freerepublic.com/focus/f-news/3867090/posts )
I agree with you that this is big news, and I clicked the box for Front page News when I posted the other article. We will see how the mods feel about it.
I put a link to your post in the other one, so folks could see the primary source material that you posted, as well as what the media would like us to think about it.
If you want daily email from the Whitehouse.
Send a message to the Whitehouse.

Oh, and send a real message with encouragement or thoughts and suggestions too.
“We” didn’t do that. The congressvermin did that. But Trump is changing that. Can’t clean the swamp out completely in only one term.
I get it already as far as I know, I’ll have to check. But good idea, if I’m not I will sign up.
Ha, the media! ROTLOL! The more upset they are, the happier I am.

FYI They don’t hit me up for money either.
HERE’S HOW THEY DO IT EVEN TO THEIR OWN
Democrats weren’t happy with his votes anti abortion and on being the only democrat to vote NO on allowing men to to call themselves a women and compete with women in college sports.
Those who live in Chicago already voted at their local public library. In the reshaped 3rd Congressional district Daniel Lipinski lost because of redistricting. Which had previously included adjacent Chicago city wards to his 23rd in a district that dealt exclusively with city issues such as a subway L service and the Stevenson Expressway Wards which were reliable Dan’s father William O Lipinski supporters. But since most had areas with hispanic last names those areas were redistricted and assigned to Gutieriez’s district.Those results are posted below which actually tear up the concept of a neighborhood.

Many of US elections both local and state are very corrupt. That will be changing, and the results will be shown.
Thank you for your optimism, which I share, there seems to be so little of that here.
Some mental cases, terminal cynicism and hopelessness, and some pros.

God bless and keep this good man.
Thank you, Father in Heaven, for PDJT.
Yes!
That is a very good point and I have thought of something like that.
Damn good start.
