Supreme court's Caucasians and other judges with your Protection for documented foreigners, we don't need your decision to make for us in a questionnaire. The only war in 1944 and what this country did to them women in Germany after the war will not be forgotten. Judgement day

F... Supreme court's decision' just add our question on the questionnaire. The last decision the Supreme court's made innocent people died. Judgement day is for documented foreigners and the Supreme court's Caucasians and they do not need to worry about cencus. F... off, S.C.& DF

Only to a liberal is counting US citizens in the US a bad idea.

Oh my word the horror!

Chief Justice Roberts will have to be the sane conserve once again.

States should not be awarded Representatives to Congress based on numbers of people that include those who are not citizens. California has been unreasonable. You should not receive representation in Congress if you are not a citizen. Ask the question.

Of course the administration can legally ask for citizenship status.

I’m predicting another 5-4 decision.

Collecting this data is what helped the government put Japanese AMERICANS in internment camps after the start of WWII. Learn from history, don't repeat it.

No they may not, the census must go forward as is.

Help us John Roberts you're our only hope (for an accurate count)

Looking at pre 1940 census, the question was asked. Not sure if checking alien did anything to change the population count. Would like to know the answer.

We need to know who’s in our country so we can offer assistance.

Seems like a reasonable question. Why is it not already on there?

Of course they can ask the question.

Say goodbye to a number of California reps, as well as NY, NJ, MI, MN etc.

THAT IS AN IMPORTANT QUESTION THAT SHOULD BE ASKED!

Of course he can! Come on guys it decides the House of Reps it's not ok however you feel about illegal immigration don't steal my Representation.

This is scary given the ideologues we currently have on the right.

I'm a citizen and if it's on the form, I won't answer it.

Supreme Court takes up Trump administration’s plan to ask about citizenship in censusA lower court said the question, not asked of all households since 1950, could lead to an undercount of the U.S. population. Perhaps the census should ask people their height and weight and put them in prison for lying.... like Trump. Census is used to allocate Electoral College votes so if 14-22MM IllegalImmigrants included,States that dont enforce immigration laws like CA, Il, NY will be rewarded w more electoral college votes than rightly deserved. This is why Dems care States and tax payers have the right to know what parts of their population are citizens, legal immigrants, & illegal immigrants. A clearer picture would help the immigration conversation.
