Mr. Speaker. as I stated with others on numerous occasions before this body. the current policy of the U.S. Census Bureau that permits a counting of undocumented residents for the purpose of apportioning congressional seats is wrong and should be changed. From all indications. however. the Census Bureau has no intention of changing it and will proceed with the same policy that some Members have said here has been in existence for 200 years unless we in this House force them to change. Mr. Speaker. let me say to my colleagues who have talked here about the constitutional aspect of this question.
