On Tuesday, the Supreme Court heard oral arguments for United States Department of Commerce v. New York in order to rule on the legality of including a citizenship question on the 2020 census form. After hearing 80 minutes of arguments, the judges appeared split 5-4 in favor of inclusion. This would be a huge victory for red-state Republicans, who suspect census over-counting in pro-Democrat “sanctuary” precincts. Meanwhile, Democrats bemoan the possibility of 6.5 million non-citizens throwing away the census form rather than risking ICE agents and deportation.
