There shouldn't be a citizenship question. The Census counts at persons living in the US, not just all citizens. This will skew the handout of federal funds so much, which honestly might be our President's goal.

The funds help pay for community services: police/for/EMS, food bank, social services, hospitals, etc. Undocumented people are here, and might need these essentials.

Citizens are here and might need these services, and are in fact entitled to them. But nice of you to admit you're okay with diverting funds from citizens to non-citizens. I'm sure that actual Americans will make due with less.

...first off not everybody who isn’t a citizen is undocumented. Second, do you understand how public services work? If the fire fighter let the “illegals” house burn uncontrolled and your house is next to theirs, your house is gonna burn down too.
