Sigh, because it would be good to know how many citizens we have.

If I do not complete the U.S. Census form, what would happen to me?

Nada, zip, zero. They came to my door several times and I refused. I said I am the only one living here. That's your count, now go away.

Nothing ever happened because I refused. End of story.

What could it be? Maybe he just doesn't want to end up like Scalia.

My thought exactly.

Thanks for the reply. I read the link and it would take a Philadelphia lawyer to figure it all out....which I am not.

So, I still don't know who to hate the most in this decision...and why, LOL.

Nonsense. If “Judas” struck again, this would be a ruling in favor of NY.

Instead, Roberts (and likely the WHOLE CONSERVATIVE CAUCUS, as no one wrote any other opinion disagreeing) gave the Commerce Dept. back it’s “essay question” and said, “re-write it like x, y, z and we’ll approve it.”

This is exactly what the USSC did with the Cherokee Nation v. Georgia, in which the USSC ruled against the Indians on a technical ground but outlined exactly how to bring the case, which the Indians did, and won in Worchester v. Georgia.

DC is a “City State” onto itself. It no longer represents the people. It needs to be shut down.

You are absolutely correct. Gwinnett Medical Center is a hell-hole for illegals. My wife was a nurse and knew several fantastic nurses who tried to help, but it was futile.

My son was born there when it was a great hospital.

It will not be resolved in time for the census to be sent out.

I’ll believe it when they approve it.

Until then I’m channeling Adm. Akbar.

So illegals say “sí” that they are citizens?

re-write it like x, y, z and we’ll approve it.

Assuming all this gets done, and the lower court sends it back to SCOTUS, and SCOTUS has time before it gets printed.

Fight back.

The Legislative branch only wants votes close to election time.

I am hitting back and have nothing to lose.

I fought against the MARTA tax in Gwinnett county (GA) and we won. Our stupid elected officials do not care about the TAX PAYING citizens.

Perhaps instead of reading the Fox News Headline it would be more instructive to read the SC OPINION to which this hyperlink is a link
