It is right before the Senate where we can vote on it today. The other argument has been that this is unconstitutional. In truth and in fact. the Supreme Court of the United States has never directly ruled on the illegal alien question. whether it would be included or not or should be under the sweep of the Constitution. That is undisputed. What we should do today is vote up or down on this issue and include it in this legislation. because we have the 1990 census coming up before us and this will distort the one person. one vote. one man. one vote that we all talk about on both sides of the aisle. What is this really going to do? You can look around and say. "Well. this is going to distort in favor of some States at the expense of others and give those States more congressional representation in the House of Representatives based on illegal aliens being there. not the citizens. not the documented legal aliens. but illegal aliens." It is going to cause some problem. We do not know how much. but we have some areas that know that it is going to cost a number of States congressional representation in the U.S. House of Representatives.
