H.R.7109 or The Equal Representation Act passed the House on a party line vote. Its objective is simple.
“To require a citizenship question on the decennial census, to require reporting on certain census statistics, and to modify apportionment of Representatives to be based on United States citizens instead of all persons.”
As the Biden administration has deliberately allowed millions of illegal invaders to enter and remain in the United States, the underlying issues are more urgent than ever. And they date back to the debates at the heart of the Civil War.
Pack enough people into a district and those in power can become a majority even if the people themselves can’t vote and have no right to even be here.
This was one of the political issues involving slavery and the party of slavery used illegal aliens to create large numbers of ‘ghost districts’ especially in the West. The power of the Democrats is in large part based on urban political machines many of which are populated by people who are not American citizens.
The crackup over open borders is today’s slavery debate. Beyond the moral questions, there’s a political crisis caused by a partisan faction trying to build modern slave power on the backs of people who do not vote or make no actual choice in voting, but who function on a political plantation meant to ensure the power of the machine.
The Supreme Court’s unconstitutional interference with the census was both illegal and revealing. Of all the modern political taboos, this is still one of the most explosive. Asking people whether they are here legally and whether they are citizens would transform the political system and end the runaway radicalism of the Left.
And so it has become the ultimate red line.
