No Census Consensus

The government's plan to add a citizenship question to the 2020 Census hit a judicial impasse Monday, in the form of a stern 277-page district court ruling that questioned the administration's motives, and which is likely destined for SCOTUS review. Three guests help unpack the sprawling ruling: Prof. Justin Levitt (Loyola Law School), Steven Camarota (Center for Immigration Studies), and former Census Bureau Director (and current Commissioner on the California Citizens Redistricting Commission) Vincent Barabba.
