I think they are counted in the census numbers which gives California the extra congressional seats and extra electoral votes.

The issue I have is that "we" (the US) invited them to come in illegally, welcomed them, gave them benefits, etc.So should those who entered our country illegally jump ahead of those trying to get here by doing it properly and legally? Or get in the back of the line of those trying to do it legally?
After all,,,there is a price to be paid.
We are dealing with the consequences of a failed administration (the Biden Administration). But that was our government.
So then they are here illegally. It needs corrected. But not at the expense of those who are in the process of doing it legally.
The problem is many of those here illegally entered via invitation from our government. They even provided an app for that.
And the issue is more complicated. Many here illegally committed a civil offence by remaining here (others a felony by how they entered). If you come here legally and stay illegally (overstaying a visa, entering via a tour, etc.) Then you have committed a civil offence. If you enter illegally you have committed a felony.
But the bottom line is WE (the US) opened the boarder, invited these people in, promised we would help meet their needs, etc. The problem is less the migrants and more the past administration.
So then they are not here illegally? I'm confused.
Somebody’s got to pick the fruit
I will believe it when I see it.
I think good work programs put in place for 10 years that do not take Americans jobs, so that they can earn their pathway to deportation.
Somebody’s got to pick the fruit
Americans will at $50 an hour.
I don’t know what all the fuss is about, Mexico and South America in general is a beautiful place, people go there for holidays. The government should be marketing cheap flights as holidays to the illegals and stop calling it “ deportation “.
Turn this whole thing around.
Turn this whole thing around.
I’m curious to see Pope Leo’s reaction to this mass invasion ( greatly funded and allowed by his predecessor the now deceased Pope Francis). He (Leo) has put away in a Monastery Francis’s key lieutenant, Cardinal Tagel who is a liberal, so as not to interfere with his plans for the USA so I’m intrigued as to his activity concerning this dilemma. As I have stated many times, my personal view of the Catholic Church is that they were active in transporting & housing illegals into this country and they should be brought to trial as a criminal organization. But we have so many damn Catholics (and in high places) in the USA…and that pretty much covers up their human trafficking crimes committed by the RCC. Let’s see if this American Pope has the guts to address it....let me know
Oh you haven’t heard…the Gov of the great state of Florida, Ron Desantis, has proposed having our children as farm worker substitutes. I do wonder if Ronnie would send his own kids out into the fields…maybe even his wife to do that job. In the days of economic depression my great grandfather used his grandchildren to do the farm work, pick tomato’s & other crops, milk the cows etc. My cousin, now a teaching professor in Delaware, indicated to me that that farm work experience provided him with the incentive to go to school and make a better world for himself. So who needs illegal's when our kids can do the work? It’s a good life experience. Gets them off the internet. Teaches valuable life skills…like churning butter, milking cows, chopping wood, picking veggies, etc.

Had they threatened to shoot them at the border then this whole issue would have been resolved at the point of illegials entry. So what if you kill them occasionally …that’s a border patrol issue.
Trump’s mass deportation is backfiring | CNN Politics
President Donald Trump and his administration continue to bet big on the issue that, more than any other, appeared to help him win him a second term in 2024: immigration.
