THAT'S WHERE JUSTICES ARE
HEARING ARGUMENTS OVER THE
TRUMP ADMINISTRATION'S PLAN TO
ADD A CITIZENSHIP QUESTION ON
THE 2020 CENSUS.
THE SUPREME COURT'S DECISION
ISN'T EXPECTED UNTIL JUNE, BUT
THAT DECISION COULD HAVE FAR
REACHING IMPACTS.
REACHING IMPACTS. FOR EXAMPLE, IT COULD AFFECT
HOW MANY SEATS STATES HAVE IN
THE HOUSE OF REPRESENTATIVES.
AND THE AMOUNT OF FEDERAL MONEY
OVER THE NEXT 10 YEARS.
THE TRUMP ADMINISTRATION SAYS
THE CITIZENSHIP QUESTION IS
CONSTITUTIONAL, BUT CRITICS
ARGUE IT COULD LEAD TO AN
INACCURATE PICTURE OF THE
POPULATION, BECAUSE
POPULATION, BECAUSE UNDOCUMENTED IMMIGRANTS AREN'T
LIKELY TO RESPOND.
AND THAT BRINGS US TO TODAY'S
VIEWER VOICE POLL.
