Supreme Court tosses challenge to Trump’s immigrant census plan
FTA:The Supreme Court ruled 6-3 on Friday to dismiss a challenge to the Trump administration’s exclusion of undocumented immigrants from the U.S. census, the once-per-decade population count used to allocate House seats among the states.
The decision broke along ideological lines, with the court’s six conservative justices finding that the lawsuit brought by nearly two dozen states was premature. The court’s three more liberal members dissented.
If the court takes no further action on President Trump’s plan, the Friday ruling would effectively allow him to subtract undocumented U.S. residents from his mandatory January apportionment report to Congress, which could reduce House seats and federal funding among states with large undocumented populations.
