Counting only citizens? Sounds like a census with blinders on — democracy counts everyone, not just those with a passport sticker.

If you don’t respect our laws enough to be a citizen, why should you get to tip the political scales?

It’s about damn time we stop padding population numbers with folks who aren’t invested in this country.

So we’re splitting hairs on headcounts now? The census should be accurate, but also inclusive — can’t have it both ways.

Fine line between what’s fair and what’s political grandstanding; let’s measure population, not citizenship in a census.

Finally, a bill to count those who actually have the right to vote; why include the freeloaders in the headcount?

Excluding non-citizens from the count is like making democracy a VIP club with an unlisted guest list.

This bill tries to erase whole communities from the map; newsflash: equality doesn’t come with citizenship paperwork.

Counting only citizens sounds neat on paper, but does it really reflect who’s living and working in our towns?
