Why Illegals have political value

Just heard about this....

House seats/electoral votes are handed out based on census data.

Evidently, the Census counts people...not citizens

So...there are 6-7 seats/votes that are "skewed" because of illegal aliens.

California gets 3 extra...as if they couldn't do enough damage without!

The article in question also mentioned some districts where there are 41% non-citizens.

Ok....this just seems wrong!

A relic of other days. Maybe not wrong, maybe just needs to be changed. Like the attainment of citizen status by children born here to illegal aliens.

That is one that should have been put to rest years ago. It's always burned me up.

Would also like to see a requirement that all taxpayer funded facilities (schools, hospitals, etc.) be required to get a U. S. birth certificate before any service is rendered. Cold hearted? I don't think so. I didn't pay for these facilities so every Jose, Juan and Maria could mooch off my work. If I want to do charitable work I'll do so voluntarily. :fire:

I'm sick and tired of this "open borders" crap. If someone doesn't like where they live either change it or follow the rules for immigration.
