"Rodriguez says a full count will ensure that Latino communities get their share of government services"
I read this article in utter disbelief. The clergyman above actually thinks that illegal aliens should avail themselves of taxpayer benefits. I don't think illegal aliens should be counted in the census. They are not citizens of this country and they shouldn't even be here.
They should not be counted unless we also identify them as being illegal. Then, we can actually have a better accounting of the squandering of our tax dollars. We would also have the address of their residence. Other than that, they shouldn’t be counted. Nor should a district receive additional seats due to an illegal population.
I agree, as when the illegal aliens leave that district, and they will...those who added seats will be given the "extra monies" for an unnecessary position. Salaries and office/committees, etc. will eat up any extra funds until change occurs in the WH.. The people will not receive one extra dime.
