Census Amendment Drives Amnesty Supporters Off The Deep End
An amendment by Republican Sens. David Vitter (La.) and Robert Bennett (Utah) to require the Census to count illegal immigrants drew a barrage of criticism from the usual open-borders groups that saw a direct threat to their political power; the amendment would expose the many 'rotten' districts with too few legal residents created as a result of illegal immigration, which created opportunities for more open-borders politicians to be elected in California and other states at the cost of lost representation for citizens in other states.
