U.S. Supreme Court to hear citizenship question argument

0SHARES

Enumeration Clause of the Constitution states that Congress must count or conduct  an “actual enumeration” of the entire population of the United States, including those individuals who lack U.S. citizenship.

But now the Trump Administration wants the Department of Commerce, the government agency who administers the census, to insert a citizenship question in the survey.

The move in 2018 to add the question has caused such an outcry of opposition, that it’s now being reviewed by the U.S. Supreme Court, which must decide if the administration took the proper steps in their assessment to offer up the citizenship question.
