Justice Department presses census citizenship question plan
The Justice Department says it will seek legal grounds to add a citizenship question to the 2020 census hours after President Trump said he is seriously considering an executive order. The move comes as the Supreme Court has blocked the question for now and as printing begins without it. The administration cites districting needs and federal spending allocations while critics warn a citizenship query could deter participation and skew results, reshaping political power and resources.
