BREAKING: Plaintiffs in census case have been informed the 2020 census will be printed without inclusion of a citizenship question, Justice Dept. official confirms to ABC News.

A Justice Department official confirmed to ABC News on Tuesday that plaintiffs in the census case have been informed that the 2020 census will be printed without inclusion of a citizenship question.

On Monday, President Donald Trump said he was still"looking at" the possibility of trying to delay the census from being printed -- something multiple legal experts expressed doubt would even be legal. In an email to plaintiffs of the case today, DOJ trial attorney Kate Bailey told plaintiffs"the printer has been instructed to begin the printing process."

I never saw this census sent to my address in the last 15 years I have been Citizen. Such a waste of time!

This is absolutely wrong. The Census primary job is to allocate seats in Congress based on a states population. Ignoring citizenship will dramatically affect our political system for years to come unfairly. Dems intentionally wanted this to have more seats & achieve more power.

We can expect mass deportations and / or massive numbers of citizens in blue states not filling out the form.

Yay, more Congressional Representatives for Texas

Well hell Ding-Dong! That's just great. Now the city's that need more funds to help with all those illegals will not be getting those funds. Which just tickles me to death, I didn't want TO fund the illegals with my tax dollars. Maybe those funds will help US citizens instead

Trump should have told them he didn't want it there. They would have broke their necks getting it there.

Printing it means nothing. You suck, ABC. Best President Ever

There's already far more advanced ways to do a head count of illegals - and track their movements across the nation.

Excellent!

Boycott

The end.

Serious loss for election integrity running up to 2020. The citizenship question would not have prevented anyone from being counted. But it would have exposed voting districts with egregiously bloated rolls. Partisan lawlessness run amok.

This is asinine We r the only country who can’t ask if a legal citizen is actually a legal citizen Liberal stupidity is killing this country Media has their heads so far up their u know where that they r utterly useless and irrelevant

That was stupid. American patriots will now boycott the census making it irrelevant.

Stupid, illegals shouldnt be in our country to begin with. The Dems want to not only support them, they give them drivers licenses, healthcare and expect tax payers children to get second rate education bc of over crowding, jobs lost to citizens bc of illegals. Get a backbone ppl

NEW: Commerce Sec. Wilbur Ross: 'The Census Bureau has started the process of printing the decennial questionnaires without the question. My focus, and that of the Bureau and the entire Department is to conduct a complete and accurate census.”

and what is the penalty to Trump if the little bastard prints it anyway with the question ON it, they have NO respect for the Law

So what the hell is it good for?

We can't get a count of the citizens living in our country for fear of offending the foreign nationals who are living here illegally. Absolute nonsense.

Maybe this was the emergency Pence had to go to..

Good

Totally useless census. Why even do a census if we don't know the citizenship of the people we are questioning?

. The Republican appointed judges are giving a little to make people believe they are nonpartisan. Then they will vote to make Rapist legal by placing road bumps in the road that will make it impossible to convict a rapist. Law: KavanaughRevenge

😂

Corrupt court system

That question needs to be on census

I wonder how many illegal aliens we can include in our households since they can't be validated. Can we include all the ones we are paying for in detention centers as in our households?

Democrats are going to lose in 2020. You all really care about illegals over black and white citizens. Hmm.
