WASHINGTON/NEW YORK ¨C U.S. President Donald Trump on Monday injected himself into one of the most consequential cases of the current Supreme Court term, saying the nation¡¯s 2020 census would be ¡°meaningless¡± without adding a citizenship question to the questionnaire.
The comment on Twitter came ahead of an expected ruling from the Supreme Court on whether Commerce Secretary Wilbur Ross¡¯ decision to add the citizenship question violated federal law.
¡°Can you believe that the Radical Left Democrats want to do our new and very important Census Report without the all important Citizenship Question,¡± Trump tweeted. ¡°Report would be meaningless and a waste of the $Billions (ridiculous) that it costs to put together!¡±
