The US president has argued that counting undocumented immigrants in the apportionment process could result in the allocation of two or three more congressional seats…
US President Donald Trump has signed an executive order requiring census counts to be adjusted by subtracting undocumented immigrants.
As an example, the order cites « one state » where there are more than 2.2 million illegal immigrants (presumably California), and including them in the apportionment would result in two or three more congressional seats for the state, creating an imbalance.
