Yes. The question should be asked.
The number of congressmen/congresswoman should only apply to number of legal citizens and resources should be allocated only to those here legally.
Looks like this judge picked the wrong day to quit doing meth, heroin, sniffing glue, drinking a quart of whiskey a day, and smoking pot on the job.
Starting in 1970, questions about citizenship were included in the long-form questionnaire but not the short form. For instance, in 2000, those who received the long form were asked, “Is this person a CITIZEN of the United States?”
Later, the census added the American Community Survey, conducted every year and sent to 3.5 million households. It began being fully implemented in 2005. It asks many of the same questions as the census long-form surveys from 1970 to 2000, including the citizenship question.
Sanders said that in 2010 the citizenship question was removed. In fact, there was no long form that year it had been replaced by the annual American Community Survey. The decennial census form asked just 10 questions.
...if the 2020 census form does ultimately ask about citizenship status, it will be the first time the question will be asked of all U.S. households since 1950.
The Left is hiding the historical information by conflating all US Households with whether citizenship was a question on the census. Only the 2010 census omitted the question because that Census omitted the long form entirely.
You would have better luck in finding something with a backbone by lifting up rocks in a Pacific Northwest rain forest.
So the ‘Rats don’t just play weasels on TV?
Just another nitwit LIB who somehow became a “judge”. Haven’t these losers ever read the Constitution or any of the Supreme Court decisions in these matters? I hope this fool gets impeached and removed for such bad judgment.
The point is to let Sessions know WE KNOW. That is all.
Yep he should say this judge doesn’t have standing for such an order. The judge will need to evaluate to the Supremes of he expects trump to listen.
Federal judge-president Jesse Furman can eat a pile of Mitt.
Don’t forget “the baby Harp seal cure” beforehand...
is busy burying the MISSING computer server.
After a certain number of overturned decisions, these judges need to be fired.
It’s about time a POTUS says now, and tells a judge they can either pound sand or take their complaint directly to the Supreme Court where we can argue directly on the issue of a judges right to interfere with the executive branch function of the Census, qusstioning any “Constitutional” issue the judge thinks they have.
Amen... Job performance ratings for judges.
End the lifetime appointments.
Asking the question allows you to count both citizens and non-citizens. That’s not an undercount.

Ok we wont include New York in the census, if New Yorkers want to be counted they can move to PA
The federal government has a solemn obligation to ensure a fair and accurate count of all people in this country. By demanding the citizenship status of each resident, the Trump administration is breaking with decades of policy and potentially causing a major undercount that would threaten billions in federal funds and New Yorks fair representation in Congress and the Electoral College.
The claim falsely implies (but doesnt say) that Trump is demanding citizenship status and then not counting non-citizens, as if it says Only fill out this form if you are a citizen. In fact they are counting everyone and just asking everyone if they are a citizen or not. What they do with that information is another matter and may affect the billions of handouts referred to but that should be litigated later.
Note this is part of a trend of the left not wanting to know something because even just knowing facts threatens their worldview.
A New York judge has an inherent conflict of interest, since the citizenship question might well lead to reduced representation for his state, and thus his DEMOCRAT party. Case should be appealed to a real court, and the judge censured or removed for failing to recuse.
Counting non-citizens as a means of determining congressional districts is an infringement of the rights of citizens. Certain congressional districts in CA, NY, TX are inflated with non-citizens. Meanwhile, other congressional districts in some of the same states and medium sized states are proportionally under represented. This would appear to be a constitutional, and voting rights violation against citizens.
I would hope that a case be brought against this judges on these grounds. A Northern NY congressional district for example.
