Mr. President. this is not a case of first impression. This is a mistake. However well intentioned. it is unworkable and unenforceable. Can you not just see it? "Good evening. Madam. I am from the U.S. Bureau of Census. Would you mind telling me how many members of your household are illegal aliens?" This is not going to work. The effort to try to make it work will set the census back. They are currently preparing for the 1990 census. It is unconstitutional. The Supreme Court thinks so. They have so advised the Secretary of Commerce. He has indicated in the past that this would be the basis for a veto recommendation.
