. La póliza dice que los inmigrantes ilegales no serían contados en el censo. Con esta propuesta, los inmigrantes indocumentados en el país serán incluidos en el censo; por lo que la diferencia en números es impresionante.

Esto traerá muchos cambios, especialmente en el estado de Texas. La población del estado está compuesta de un 17% de inmigrantes ilegales. Ahora que toda esta gente será contada, Texas puede ganar uno o dos bancas de legisladores en el gabinete nacional. Finalmente, Texas será reconocido como un estado que merece ser tomado en cuenta. Aún más, la distribución de dinero en las comunidades y para las escuelas también podría ser impactado si se aprueba esta nueva propuesta. 

Este cambio puede reflejar más precisamente la representación de Texas. Al incluir a los inmigrantes ilegales tejanos, se tendrían hasta 40 asientos en la casa de representantes. Texas será más inclusivo y tendrá una voz mayor en las elecciones. Con el número de representantes en la Casa de Representantes, Texas está sólo detrás de California en número de bancas ubicadas. A como pasa el tiempo, puede que los próximos cambios a la póliza sean positivos.

Changes in Texas 

Translated by Citlali Mercado 


With the new presidency of Joe Biden, we have encountered a lot of changes. One of the newfound changes is that Biden has inverted the policy set in place by former president Trump about the census policy, in which illegal immigrants were not allowed to be counted toward the census. With this proposed change, undocumented immigrants in this country will now be counted towards the census, and the difference in numbers is impressive. 

            This will bring a significant amount of change, especially in the state of Texas. The population of Texas is composed of 17% illegal immigrants. Now that these individuals will be included in the census, Texas could gain one or two more legislature seats. Texas will finally be recognized as the significant state it is. With this new count in the census, the distribution of funds in the communities, and schools could be greatly impacted. 

            This change in the census will demonstrate a more precise representation of Texas and its population. With the count now including immigrants, Texas can have up to 40 seats in the House of Representatives. Texas will become more inclusive and therefore will have a greater voice in the elections. Texas is only behind California in the number of seats. The new coming changes in this policy should prove to provide positive changes as time progresses.
