Eric Holder, California to Sue Trump Admin Over Reinstating Citizenship To Census
Blunt Force Truth via GP ^ | 03/27/18 | Kristinn Taylor

Posted on 03/27/2018 6:21:45 AM PDT by Enlightened1

The Trump administration announced Monday night it will be reinstating a citizenship question to the decennial census in 2020, prompting threats of lawsuits by prominent Democrats.

Former Obama Attorney General Eric Holder and California Attorney General Xavier Becerra separately announced they will file respective lawsuits to stop the citizenship question from being asked during the census.

Holder’s statement called the move by the Trump administration a “direct attack on our representative democracy.”

Becerra called the decision, “illegal.”

The Commerce Department, which oversees the census, issued a statement announcing the decision:

Today, the U.S. Department of Commerce announced that a question on citizenship status will be reinstated to the 2020 decennial census questionnaire to help enforce the Voting Rights Act (VRA).

Democrats are openly siding with fraudulently documented foreigners.
Bush League Republicans are more subtle.

The Democrats have been whining about foreign intervention in our elections.

Nevermind the money Hillary took from China and Saudi Arabia.

Nevertheless, now they want foreigners to be counted during the census.

Wow you take out the non citizens out of California then you will have a different State.

Good to see this move by the Trump Administration to protect our votes from illegals.

“Holder’s statement called the move by the Trump administration a ‘direct attack on our representative democracy.’”

Leftists always accuse others of what they’re trying to do themselves. It’s very instructive.

Hilarious.

The Mexican attack on our Republic continues.

Becerra, the unelected Mexican Separatist shows his contempt for the Americans.

Why should other states reward CA for becoming a sanctuary state for illegals, sending them more funding for freebies for illegals who shouldn’t be in the USA?

Eric Holder has no standing in the case.

It’s time for Trump to exercise “The power of the purse”. Screw Kalifornia.

Becerra called the decision, “illegal.”

I prefer to think of the decision as “undocumented”.

He still thinks he’s in government. He’s not. He’s just another fancy schwartza with a mustache.

Holder is a prime example of why quotas are a bad idea.

Crooked lawyers and black robed tyrants can make anything happen THE LAW. We are are nation of crooked lawyers and judges, not laws for US citizens. I wager that Holder already has lined up some blackrobed antiamerican fascist that will declare the question pro-American citizen and therefore unconstitutional, inhumane, bigoted, and racist. Mark my words.

“Becerra called the decision, ‘illegal.’”

The irony is so thick, you could cut it with a chain saw.

Wouldn't it be easier to list the countries she did NOT take money from?

Trumps own fault if he loses. He could have Xavier Becerra in Prison for the IT Matter. Instead he chooses to ignore it.

The census has long been perverted from its original mission of enumeration. With the scores of non-germane questions already asked, I don’t know the basis of the objection to asking about citizenship. Unless they are afraid the revelation that 11 million is ridiculously fake.
