Senior Trump adviser Stephen Miller has pushed the administration’s plan to exclude undocumented immigrants from census counts used for congressional apportionment, arguing their inclusion inflates House seats in Democratic strongholds like California and New York. (thedailybeast.com) The proposal, tied to broader Republican efforts and a Missouri lawsuit seeking to bar noncitizens from apportionment, would shift seats and Electoral College votes if implemented. (yahoo.com) Legal experts note the Constitution requires counting “the whole number of persons,” and courts have repeatedly blocked similar 2020 attempts. (en.wikipedia.org) Fact-checkers and studies say excluding undocumented immigrants would likely produce only modest, possibly offsetting, seat changes. Debate remains heated. (politifact.com)
