In a blatant betrayal of their actual constituents, Democrats have forced the U.S. Census Bureau to include illegal immigrants when determining the number of congressional representatives in each state. In other words, states with dense populations of illegal immigrants (Democrat voters) will get additional representatives in Congress that they shouldn't have.

Louisiana Senator David Vitter (R) had tried to attach an amendment excluding non-citizens to a Census Bureau funding bill, but Democrats decisively voted it down 60-39.
