Because they do not have usual residence in this country. and since 1790. that is what the Census Bureau has been guided by. Who has usual residence in this country? By their very definition. illegal aliens have crashed the barriers and do not have their usual residence in the United States and. therefore. should not be counted for representation in this Chamber. and I would hope we would bear that in mind. Mr. Speaker. no court has ever ruled. to my knowledge. on this precise question. and I submit to the Members that if the Census Bureau excludes all of those who do not have usual residence in the United States that that would be the fair thing and that would be the correct thing. and it would be the constitutional thing to do.
