Letter to the editor: Dems & citizenship question
Just answer the question: Why don’t Democrats want the U.S. citizenship question included on the census form? Because they know they will lose thousands of votes they shouldn’t be getting in the first place.
That very question is asked on many forms, from the doctor’s office to the DMV, and nobody says anything, but when it counts for community census reports and federal funding, all hell brakes loose.
If you can’t answer the question, you are probably in the U.S. illegally, in which case you should not be voting in the first place. Every person who votes should have to show some form of ID that proves he or she is an American citizen — period.
Just answer the question.
