Missouri Attorney General Catherine Hanaway announced Friday that the state has filed a lawsuit against the US Census Bureau over its practice of counting illegal immigrants.

Hanaway said the lawsuit challenges what she described as unconstitutional census practices that allow illegal immigrants to influence congressional representation and presidential elections.

“United States citizens have a right to representation, NOT illegal aliens,” Hanaway wrote on X. “United States citizens should decide electoral votes and congressional seats, NOT illegal aliens.”

She added that Missouri is suing the Census Bureau for allowing illegal immigrants to affect the path to the White House and compromise elections.

“We are suing @uscensusbureau for unconstitutionally allowing illegal aliens to commandeer the path to The White House and compromise our elections,” Hanaway wrote.

The lawsuit targets how census population counts are used to allocate congressional seats and electoral votes.
