The Biden autopen cabal intentionally circumvented our immigration law in order to increase their House seats, THIS WAS CRIMINAL!

ARE YOU A US CITIZEN?

The SCOTUS MUST REVISIT THE PREVIOUS DECISION ON ASKING THIS QUUESTION IN THE CENSUS!

-----------------------------

It is constitutional to include questions in the decennial census beyond those concerning a simple count of the number of people. On numerous occasions, the courts have said the Constitution gives Congress the authority to collect statistics in the census. As early as 1870, the Supreme Court characterized as unquestionable the power of Congress to require both an enumeration and the collection of statistics in the census. The Legal Tender Cases, Tex.1870; 12 Wall., U.S., 457, 536, 20 L.Ed. 287. In 1901, a District Court said the Constitution's census clause (Art. 1, Sec. 2, Clause 3) is not limited to a headcount of the population and "does not prohibit the gathering of other statistics, if 'necessary and proper,' for the intelligent exercise of other powers enumerated in the constitution, and in such case there could be no objection to acquiring this information through the same machinery by which the population is enumerated." United States v. Moriarity, 106 F. 886, 891 (S.D.N.Y.1901).

The census does not violate the Fourth Amendment. Morales v. Daley, 116 F. Supp. 2d 801, 820 (S.D. Tex. 2000). In concluding that there was no basis for holding Census 2000 unconstitutional, the District Court in Morales ruled that the 2000 Census and the 2000 Census questions did not violate the Fourth Amendment or other constitutional provisions as alleged by plaintiffs. (The Morales court said responses to census questions are not a violation of a citizen's right to privacy or speech.) "…t is clear that the degree to which these questions intrude upon an individual's privacy is limited, given the methods used to collect the census data and the statutory assurance that the answers and attribution to an individual will remain confidential. The degree to which the information is needed for the promotion of legitimate governmental interests has been found to be significant. A census of the type of Census 2000 has been taken every ten years since the first census in 1790. Such a census has been thought to be necessary for over two hundred years. There is no basis for holding that it is not necessary in the year 2000."

The U.S. Court of Appeals for the Fifth Circuit affirmed the District Court decision on October 10, 2001, 275 F.3d 45. The U.S. Supreme Court denied petition for writ of certiorari on February 19, 2002, 534 U.S. 1135. No published opinions were filed with these rulings.

These decisions are consistent with the Supreme Court's recent description of the census as the "linchpin of the federal statistical system … collecting data on the characteristics of individuals, households, and housing units throughout the country." Dept. of Commerce v. U.S. House of Representatives, 525 U.S. 316, 341 (1999).




Importance of Apportionment​



Article I, Section 2 of the U.S. Constitution mandates that an apportionment of representatives among the states must be carried out every 10 years. Therefore, apportionment is the original legal purpose of the decennial census, as intended by our Nation's Founders. Apportionment is the process of dividing the 435 memberships, or seats, in the U.S. House of Representatives among the 50 states, based on the state population counts that result from each decennial census. The apportionment results will be the first data published from the 2020 Census, and those results will determine the amount of political representation each state will have in Congress for the next 10 years.

All you've provided is reasons why there is a census. Show me where Trump can change that? He can't. You just believe anything that Fox News tells you.
 
The Constitution does NOT say that illegal invaders have to be counted for apportionment.
 
No, it does not say illegal invaders have to be counted, they are here illegally and should NOT be here, thus they should NOT be counted, they should be deported.
 

This Group ‘WILL NOT BE COUNTED’ in Census, Trump Says.​


President Donald Trump ordered the Department of Commerce to start work on a new census in which illegal immigrants will not be counted.

“I have instructed our Department of Commerce to immediately begin work on a new and highly accurate CENSUS based on modern day facts and figures and, importantly, using the results and information gained from the Presidential Election of 2024,” Trump said in a Truth Social post.

Trump says a lot of things that aren't true. The Constitution says EVERYONE will be counted.
 
Then they will all be deported.
They are criminals here illegally, Trump could offer a reward for every illegal turned in.

Also the SCOTUS can decide if illegal invaders count as " persons living here " because it comes down to the definition of " living " as opposed to " squatting " i'e' illegal invaders are not living here, they are squatting here illegally. An illegal existence is not a living, it is squatting, thus NOT TO BE COUNTED...... TO BE DEPORTED!

The SCOTUS will decide.

The Biden auto pen cabal intentionally let 10 million illegals flood in to cheat apportionment, it will not fly.
