Figured you knew about Mex land and citizenship but too many don’t. As far as it being a question in the census form it better be on that form. Race no.

So it’s Constitutional but it’s barred because he didn’t say “pretty please can I add the question?”

Not soon enough. Just make sure that, when they’re swinging in the tree to poke them with a stick.

SCOTUS has already taken up the 2020 census case so the judges ruling is irrelevant.

“My bet is NYS loses 2.”

Probably right.
And also Florida.

But with no valid count, it’s hard to measure.

Each congressman represents about 760,000 people.

States close to the next increment of 760,00 are on the threshold. Virginia losing a few hundred thousands of illegals in their count could drop them from 11 to 10.

The Constitution actually focused on male citizens. The 14th specifically excluded Indians which Congress corrected in 1924, but did not do so via Constitutional Amendment. (Congress has the authority to define the rules for naturalization, etc.)

By inference, in order to be counted in the Census, one must be a tax paying male, which was understood and agreed upon in the 1870 USA.

Illegal aliens, especially welfare recipients, ought not properly be counted for Congressional apportionment.

“Judge Jesse Furman said Tuesday that while such a question would be constitutional ...”

So, the question is constitutional. But the judge just didn’t want it included? That judge should be removed.

the old quote— “everything bad and everything good”... like any where else. But yeah... Brooklyn— the CSA of the North or so some undergrounders say. Like the westchester raised “brooklynite” “Che’-quita” ocasio-cortez.

Hold income tax return until answer arrives and call it an audit.

Judges legislating from the bench must serve hard prison time. We must terminate judicial legislation in USA.

If that question isn’t on the census, I will refuse to participate.

Bad move. It will just give the liberals a little bit more representation and the conservatives a little bit less.

Stand up and be counted even if the bastards are against you.

Why HAVE a census if you omit pertinent data?

Come on you all know this makes sense why should we be able to find out how many citizens or non citizens we have present in our country? Like the judge said it’s completely constitutional but he’s still going to stop it because he doesn’t like the way they decided to do it. Aren’t you glad you live in such a beautiful country?

Ask yourself when there is such an intense interest in the question of citizenship and non citizenship and immigration, how can it be arbitrary and cavalier to have added a question which goes directly to that burning issue? The non lawyers here may not know how high a standard it is to prove that the government has been arbitrary and capricious. All the government has to do is show any reasonable justification. The judge’s ruling is an absolute outrage.
