Supreme Court reviews Trump plan to exclude undocumented immigrants in redistricting.

to rely on existing government data to derive a total of undocumented immigrants in each state -- and then subtract that figure from the overall sum.

In legal briefs, the parties cite an"unbroken historical and legislative practice" spanning more than 200 years of the Census Bureau counting"millions of undocumented immigrants who have lived here for decades, intend to remain and will in fact stay ... usual residents under traditional criteria."against Trump, calling the issue"not particularly close or complicated.

But they can't vote...

Good! What should be news is how you conniving crooks, thieves and cheaters move & ILLEGALLY aide ILLEGAL aliens into the country to ILLEGALLY vote in our elections to swing elections and then you want to use them to do exactly what Trump is, RIGHTFULLY fighting against!

Lefties should be counted as treasonous combatants

ILLEGAL IMMIGRANTS should not vote and/or get anything from the US government!

Can SCOTUS be trusted anymore? In the Trump election lawsuits, he's rejected 40+ times now. But he's headed to SCOTUS, where big business and Trump loyalists are now prioritized. So with the census and the election can they be trusted?

If you can't seem to find the time to become documented then you can't receive the resources that go along with being documented. Some of these people have been here for 10+ years more than plenty of time to have become a citizen/documented. Stop giving away the tax payers money.

Correct word is Illegal, not undocumented.

To sign off that they don’t count as people? Ok then...🙄

Not undocumented--- illegal immigrants. ABC get ur facts right.

He plans on destroying everything he can before he gets evicted.

“Illegal” immigrants

Not surprised, Don the con will stop a nothing to continue this gerrymandering era. If the supreme court don't allow those census to be counted, the only other fix is to pack the court to bring back balance. Let see what they're going to do.

Wicked Warlock of the West Wing 'Where's Dorothy when you need her?'

Stop calling him 'President.' Please, ., trump works for putin. Not US. Everything he does benefits Russians and mobsters.

Will SCOTUS use the 3/5s model to count undocumented individuals in the census. It is where SCOTUS is heading. They are people despite what that creature in the WH believes and should be counted. The Constitution does not discriminate in this.

Undocumented people have access to our taxes via social services, school meals, road and other infrastructure. Of course they should be counted. An undercount skews the average income which impacts community federal $ for legal residents

No no illegal immigrants tell the truth

they should be included in a tram taking them to their documented land of origin.

That’s what the census is for. To count ALL CITIZENS. Why the hell would you can’t illegals? All it does it allocate more power to the Democratic states.

It still shocks me how racist this douchebag is and worse, how many Americans also seem to be. How anyone can think their value has anything to do with their skin color is something I will never understand. Every human has equal value. End of debate.

Why do the democrat clowns running ABC News think counting illegal immigrants in the census is a good thing?

Pig

'The justices on Monday will hear oral arguments over Trump's effort -- already twice rejected by lower federal courts -- that would break from more than a century of precedent in determining apportionment of the 435 congressional districts across all 50 states.'

Everyone who supported this loser. Look at the man you supported he couldn't handle losing an election which everyone knew he would because 4 more years with Trump would be a disaster and now he is trying to destroy America because he didn't get his way. Diaperdon TrumpTantrum

As we should

Since American started to wear masks the Covid-19 infection rate has skyrocketed - The inconvenient truth the mainstream media and leftists desperately don’t want you to know.

First off, donald trump IS NOT THE 'President'. Let's get this straight once and for all. HE IS NOT THE president.

As it should be... why encourage states to harbour more undocumented people? This is how you properly incentivize desired behaviours.

Let's add 15 seats to the court and never have this problem again.

Good Morning ABC Family 🌞

Illegal immigrants should not be included as part of the fabric of our society. They did not enter the country legally and are not currently in the country legally.

Let them in and let’s defund the police that’s when the fun starts

Betting on SCOTUS giving this one to 45. These are people who have issues w/ Black Americans having the right to vote.

That sneaky devil

He's a very sick and demented man!

Good. Sign off on it. If they are illegal, they are not legal. Duh? The MEDIA is the enemy of the people.

Sanctuary states stand to lose electoral power, thwarting their attempts at an illegal, tyrannical majority.

Shit! I forgot to do the census

Trump’s a cruel heartless individual. So happy he will soon be out of office! Thanks America. 🇺🇸

So why is anyone upset about this? You don’t live here so you dont count. I don’t work for Amazon so they don’t pay me. It’s just the way it is

He’s a sick person.. maybe you should remember the First Lady is an immigrant..stayed too long on a work visa..

If you're not a citizen than you should be counted. It's that simple.

States should not receive any political power or federal funds based on their illegal immigrant population. 🤷🏼‍♀️

Another culture shock coming for Trump and his architects of the exclusion of undocumented immigrants from 2020 Census figures. Here's what bothers me: Covid-19 has wrecked any attempt to record even near census figures. Just a huge waste of money! Too many of us dying.

The census is a people count, not a citizen count.

Damn right they shouldn’t be counted. This just encourages sanctuary cities which don’t ensure national borders are respected. These cities and states cause cascading harm felt across the national day to day.

Why is this news? Why should areas who’ve illegally harbored undocumented immigrants be rewarded with more influence?

VoterID

The local states will get no more money that’s real smart does he not realize he’s cutting money off from states even red states

“Trump's effort -- already twice rejected by lower federal courts”... One court, 'not particularly close or complicated.' 2nd court, 'It seeks to do what Congress has not authorized and what the President does not have the power to do.' ...How many times does Trump want to lose?

It's unconstitutional. The census says to count EVERY living being , PERIOD

ABSOLUTELY SHOULD 💯

He didn’t even let them finish the census. Now we have to start over.

Did you know ABC spells fake news in south Agendan? 🥸

Deport them and build a wall

Since there was no citizenship question on the census it will very difficult to determine how many undocumented residents live in any particular area. Biden could also revise whatever trash Trump dreams up.

Illegal aliens do not need representation in our government. We do not need to send billions to aid illegal aliens. So odd to see elected reps fight tooth and nail for Illegal aliens, yet drag their feet to help citizens.

The Constitution requires 'actual enumeration' & redistricting based on 'the whole number of persons in each state...' Right-wingers on SCOTUS claim to believe the Constitution's exact words s/b followed. It'll be interesting to see if they really do believe that.

Sounds fine to me. We shouldn't be paying for those that are here illegally. We also shouldn't being giving them any ability to mess with our politics...

I can't wait til January 20th... 🤦

Good thing he got a bunch of yesmen in there

They'll do what they're told.

They won't. But go on with that.

As it should be. If states want to be sanctuaries for illegals they need to do it with their own dime.

By undocumented you mean illegal which shouldn't be counted towards allocating tax dollars and funding since they aren't legal and therefore don't pay taxes towards those funds. Am I missing something here ?

Trump made it so people around the world would not be counted by the census.

As a Democrat I agree to the exclusion.

Is it any wonder why the undocumented don’t want to participate in the census anyway? Can you imagine if Trump and Stephen Miller got another term? They’d be using the census to investigate everybody with a Latino last name for possible deportation.

But they pay more in taxes than trump and his wealthy friends.....proven.

Good. Prioritize American citizens

Undocumented meaning?

Because the Supreme Court also has become a political arm of the Executive branch, they will sign off on anything Trump sends their way.

Good shipping in illegal immigrants to Democrat strongholds to live in the streets in order to increase political power is outrageous.

This explains a lot

Should leave this to the next administration.

The press, once known as the Fourth Estate , used to be the check and balance on government, corruption and fraud and helped to protect us from THEM. Now they are THEM.

Stupid move. If that happens the US will have no way of knowing how many are in the country

Let’s see what they do with this one!!!

ABC you spelled illegal aliens wrong.....again

Well we know how this corrupt court will decide!

Why should USA citizens have to pay for illegal immigrants?

chiniakak Wasn’t there already a SCOTUS case about this?

The meaning of the constitutions requirement for a counting of 'all persons' is clear. It will be interesting to see what torturous reasoning the Supreme Conservative Christian Court uses to deny that language.

It should be a fast decision. How can illegals be considered citizens?

Good! ALL ILLEGALS MUST be Deported!

Well redistricting and leaving out illegal immigrants should be a no brainer-which is perfect for a Harris administration

Why would tourists be included?

Well if they’re being included then we must know where they are at. So let’s clean house! ICEgov

Sounds like only Americans should vote in our elections. Why the question What is their to decide

Sadly they will side with Donnie

Illegal Aliens have no rights in America

Why should illegal aliens have representatives in Congress?

I’m sure the originalist conservatives will find a way to say the enumeration clause doesn’t mean what it clearly says

So what does the originalist do, when the part of the Constitution regulating the census says residents and not citizens?

Here we go again.

President Biden will reverse any damage Trump pulls.

Donald Trump, Joe Biden and the Ballot. When the bratty brother doesn’t get what he wants! 😂😂

mdt4129 Ffs

There is an estimation of how many but it is not an accurate count so if they are going to do that they need an accurate number. It would not be fair to those states they mention but is he so sure there are not more in red states!

They have to actually be living here on Census day, not just visiting temporarily. And what a ridiculous premise. Pay to fly 10s of Millions of people here and back, feed, pay and house people during their stay... I thought red states love fiscal responsibility. genius

Total sideshow...3D chess...trump knows he lost.... he's just trying to swallow up all the media time so people do not instead ask whether scott brown is fit to take over the new england school of law...

Illegals don’t count.

Go for it, the states with the most GOP house members will be hit the hardest, that includes the states of Florida and Texas.

So is the SCOTUS 'Rigged' or 'Fair'

The ONLY LOGICAL REMEDY based on SOUND JUDGEMENTS , & VERBATIM from the PARCHMENT of the WRITTEN foundation of a FREE REPUBLIC is to VOID ANY ILLEGAL VOTE and COUNT THE VOTES that ARE LEGAL = realDonaldTrump wins PA & many more SeanParnellUSA PeteHegseth DanScavino Scotus

GOOD! They are ILLEGAL! No brainer!

If illegals are counted, I suggest that for the 2030 census, red states implement a plan to fly in 10s of millions of people from Africa, Asia, and central and South America for just long enough to fill out a census form before flying them back out.

Only an American hating liberal would be against this.

good

I don't rember what I said. But I'm sure someone wrote it down.

Bottom line. Perhaps excluding them is the one thing that will make BOTH parties drop the political football and settle this somehow. Political power is really all they care about.
