JUST IN: The Supreme Court has blocked a citizenship question from being added to the 2020 census for the time being.

Washington The Supreme Court has blocked a citizenship question from being added to the 2020 census for the time being in a major setback for the Trump administration.

The bitter controversy centers around whether the administration can ask all recipients a citizenship question on the 2020 census for the first time since 1950.Writing for a 5-4 majority, Chief Justice John Roberts concluded that there was sufficient reason for concern about why the Commerce Department wanted to add the question. Roberts had the support of the four liberal justices.

Arianedevogue This is a smoke screen...the real issue is the question of Gerrymandering

Arianedevogue Americans, especially those in blue states with big metropolitan cities, can all take a collective breath. Unless trump somehow succeeds in delaying the census (which I don’t see happening).

Arianedevogue Yet to apply for any job or to volunteer it is required to answer that question. Feds even have a form for it it’s called I-9. But to be counted as a citizen we have to think about it?

Arianedevogue CNN always LIES that is NOT what happened. They simply sent it back to low courts. Trump has asked it the Census can be put off until the Supreme Court can get the answers they where seeking. CNN is the ENEMY

Arianedevogue King Trump should fire all the lawyers involved.

Arianedevogue How is this a win for the he democrats? The fact is on a census you should only count citizens! Unless the democrats want to go back to the old way to count non-citizens like in 1840. Three-fifths of a resident for non-citizens (slaves)

Arianedevogue Does CNN answer questions?

Arianedevogue

Arianedevogue The last time I did a census was when I was 45. I am now 60. did I miss some and how did I miss them. How often is a census done?

Arianedevogue The census isn’t about citizens or not. U.S. Census tallies up all the people living in the US; recording age, sex, and race. This data was so important that they mandated it as part of the Constitution. Chump needs to READ it... or SOMETHING

Arianedevogue trumps trying so hard to force this question all they want to do is hurt cities because he doesn't get too many minority votes . gop is losing they are a dinosaur so they look to gain advantage any way possible by pushing racism and misogyny . people need to stop voting for rich

Arianedevogue Uh, they didn't block it they sent it back to lower court..

Arianedevogue Good for them.

Arianedevogue And what was the one they passed? Or are you that bias that you only show half of the story? CNN the opinion company. CNN is a joke.

Arianedevogue Private companies are profiting of the backs of prisoner's and refugees!! Where is the oversight? Follow Me for more

Arianedevogue Up to employers now for the time being. Don’t support crime

Arianedevogue

Arianedevogue Everyone ...

Arianedevogue Trump wins anyway

Arianedevogue This headline is quintessential FakeNews

Don't worry all. There is a divene justice that his cronies and dirty money cannot save him from. God Justice. He will answer to him.

The Republican Party is 100% corrupt.

Not surprised at all👎🏻😡

Terrible vvvvb

I am guessing with this decision, we are saying that everyone that is living in this country at the time of the census, gets to partake in the election of our President, wether they are just temporarily here, and our citizens of other countries?

I don’t think it matters one way or another. People here illegally aren’t going to answer the census truthfully or they just won’t fill out the census.

But why “for now?”

Um, just wow. You suck at providing information, even in tweets. The Supreme Council radical majority said 3 things. 1. Government never should’ve been forced to disclose the underlying racism and white supremacy behind their proposed actions.

Meatlover's, pineapple on pizza or without

This is BS..states now can be ripping American taxpayers off and continue to launder money with illegal non citizens counted so states can launder more tax dollars...so basically in America it doesn't matter if you are a citizen or not..so what does it mean to be a legal Citizen?

Didn't have to answer it. Wouldn't be counted either way.

What?😳

You mean stacked court.

Woo hop! Sucks for you Deplorable!!! Ha ha

Why you don't talk against Israel who has been killing innocent Palestinian Muslim though today's news they killed 200 Muslim over there however, you never called them terrorist!! cnni PTVNewsOfficial bbb_us bbb_us BBCWorld BBCAfrica

Cool. It now goes into the trash can

EVERY SCOTUS agrees with adding the question. There is a few issues they want clarified. So it's remanded. Keep misleading your readers.

So the Democrats will continue to benefit from illegal immigrants

The census is for citizens. Wth do we appropriate funds or representation for illegals or visitors. Why does CNN promote illegals. CNN is the enemy of the citizens. CNN is fake news

Supreme Court decides federal judges cannot block gerrymanderingThe Supreme Court rules that federal courts may not block gerrymandering in a 5-4 decision that falls along partisan lines. This is wrong. The right for representation is a federal right. Of course a majority right winged court would rule that. I say burn down the court, its no longer the Supreme Court, they are just partisan republican hacks.

Supreme Court rules on conservative effort to weaken federal agenciesThank goodness. Conservatives are trying to make government -- OUR SELF GOVERNANCE -- obsolete. Glad to see the Court put a stop to this particular tactic. Peepster3 They are actually giving them the continuation of the administrative state as their enemy, as opposed to making Congress & the courts be the bad guy to conservatives. Don't buy the hype. Congress should be making regs, not the agencies.
