That's the question that an Obama 2 00:00:04,160 --> 00:00:07,920 Speaker 1: appointed federal judge, Jesse Furman of the Manhattan District Court 3 00:00:08,200 --> 00:00:12,760 Speaker 1: is forbidding the Trump administration from asking in the twenty 4 00:00:13,480 --> 00:00:17,400 Speaker 1: census cannot ask are you a citizen? This question, by 5 00:00:17,400 --> 00:00:20,799 Speaker 1: the way, was routinely asked before the nineteen sixties. Aside 6 00:00:20,840 --> 00:00:23,760 Speaker 1: from conducting the census every ten years, the Census Bureau 7 00:00:23,840 --> 00:00:28,840 Speaker 1: also conducts the American Community Survey, and they've often asked 8 00:00:28,840 --> 00:00:32,559 Speaker 1: about citizenship on that survey. No problem, but Democrats are 9 00:00:32,600 --> 00:00:35,839 Speaker 1: afraid that if the citizenship question is asked in the 10 00:00:35,880 --> 00:00:41,760 Speaker 1: twenty census, illegal aliens won't participate and Democrats big blue 11 00:00:41,800 --> 00:00:44,680 Speaker 1: cities would suffer a huge loss of federal funding and 12 00:00:44,840 --> 00:00:51,440 Speaker 1: political representation, especially in sanctuary cities where Democrats welcome illegal 13 00:00:51,479 --> 00:00:55,440 Speaker 1: aliens with open arms.
