I don't understand how this is related to illegal immigration. Are you aware there are legal residents who are not citizens?
The article is more concerned with the Latino population for representation/voting purposes and you post it here in the illegal immigration board. Wrong board.
It's packed with noncitizens, making it a hollow district with people who can't vote," Heath said.
Both sides agree that about 59 percent of Hispanic adults residing within the school district's boundaries are noncitizen immigrants.
According to Merriam Webster’s Collegiate Dictionary, “a citizen is a member of a state to whom he or she owes allegiance and is entitled to its protection.” Hence, from this definition, it is implicit that a non-citizen is someone who is not a member of a state nor owes allegiance to the state he or she currently resides.
In other words they are foreign Nationals, or probably with the highest percentage accuracy -- Illegal Aliens

Ya know.....I have several good friends from El Salvador. Almost from the moment they stepped onto U.S. soil they were eligible for their "Mica" pronounced ME-ka, I have no idea why some folks call it a green card, it isn't green----might have been fifty years ago, but hasn't been green for a long time.
Didnt Irving already try to get rid of its illegals? Wouldn't the ones that are left be the legal ones? I'm annoyed that people honestly think that every brown Latino person walking around is illegal.

You brought up a sad and valid point there: such prejudice can also be directed towards 'brown' people of any race/ethnicity-----------including some Anglos. Needless to say: I will place a lot of the blame on the pro illegal alien apologists who gag at the thought of mass deportations of their 'pets'.

I work with many(brown) visa holding, fine upstanding people from many Countries. They were all hired legally through agencies and not one was whisked away from the front of a home depot to my work place. That is on top of the many Americans that happen to be Latino I proudly rub elbows with.
That isn't what the topic is about. It's about Illegal Aliens and how it's clouding the population due their legal American children and representation in those districts. They aren't supposed to be here but gradually have political power by planting their seed and by "showing up".
Given that the majority of Hispanic non-citizens in north Texas are illegal, it is not a huge logical leap to infer that most of these parents clamoring for "representation" in Irving not only have no right to vote for it, they do not even have the right to be here.
