Court halts census wind-down plans in California ruling
U S District Judge Lucy Koh ordered the Census Bureau and Commerce Department to stop winding down operations until a Sept 17 hearing. The TRO responds to a coalition suit arguing ending in September risks undercounting minorities and affects apportionment and federal funding. The bureau pushed the count to October due to the pandemic and sought a December deadline for apportionment numbers, while a Trump directive aimed to exclude undocumented immigrants from district counts. The ruling preserves the end of September end date for now, with further guidance to follow.
