No Congressional Representation for Illegal Aliens

From Congresswomen Candice Miller Serving Michigan's 10th District
Congresswoman Proposes Amendment to United States Constitution
WASHINGTON - United States Representative Candice Miller today announced a bold proposal to change the way Congressional Districts are apportioned to the various states. The Congresswoman is calling for an amendment to the United States Constitution to ensure only legal citizens of the United States are counted and considered when Congressional Districts are allocated.
"I find it absolutely outrageous that people who are not in our country legally are having such a profound impact on our political system," Miller said. "Every 10 years the census determines the number of Congressional districts allocated to each state and how those districts are drawn. If we continue to include illegal aliens in that count, we'll allow non-citizens to steal the Congressional voice of Americans. This is about fundamental fairness and the American ideal of `One Man; One Vote."
Congresswoman Miller has formally introduced the proposal on the House floor. It will now be referred to the House Judiciary committee.
Editor's Note - The United States Constitution's 14th amendment specifically requires all "persons" of a state be included. Currently, illegal aliens count as "persons" for this purpose. Congresswoman Miller is proposing to change that language to "citizens".Michael
