0:00:00.120 --> 0:00:04.120
<v Speaker 1>Are you a citizen? That's the question that an Obama

0:00:04.160 --> 0:00:07.920
<v Speaker 1>appointed federal judge, Jesse Furman of the Manhattan District Court

0:00:08.200 --> 0:00:12.760
<v Speaker 1>is forbidding the Trump administration from asking in the twenty

0:00:13.480 --> 0:00:17.400
<v Speaker 1>census cannot ask are you a citizen? This question, by

0:00:17.400 --> 0:00:20.799
<v Speaker 1>the way, was routinely asked before the nineteen sixties. Aside

0:00:20.840 --> 0:00:23.760
<v Speaker 1>from conducting the census every ten years, the Census Bureau

0:00:23.840 --> 0:00:28.840
<v Speaker 1>also conducts the American Community Survey, and they've often asked

0:00:28.840 --> 0:00:32.559
<v Speaker 1>about citizenship on that survey. No problem, but Democrats are

0:00:32.600 --> 0:00:35.839
<v Speaker 1>afraid that if the citizenship question is asked in the

0:00:35.880 --> 0:00:41.760
<v Speaker 1>twenty census, illegal aliens won't participate and Democrats big blue

0:00:41.800 --> 0:00:44.680
<v Speaker 1>cities would suffer a huge loss of federal funding and

0:00:44.840 --> 0:00:51.440
<v Speaker 1>political representation, especially in sanctuary cities where Democrats welcome illegal

0:00:51.479 --> 0:00:55.440
<v Speaker 1>aliens with open arms. The left is terrified that if

0:00:55.480 --> 0:00:59.920
<v Speaker 1>illegal aliens aren't counted in the census, Democrat power will shrink.

0:01:00.560 --> 0:01:03.800
<v Speaker 1>So what Obama judge is not declared it illegal for

0:01:04.000 --> 0:01:07.360
<v Speaker 1>our government to ask if people taking a government census

0:01:07.360 --> 0:01:12.480
<v Speaker 1>our citizens. It's an affront to everythinking, legal, law abiding

0:01:12.520 --> 0:01:16.559
<v Speaker 1>citizen in this great republic. But there's nothing new about that.

0:01:16.640 --> 0:01:19.480
<v Speaker 1>When the American left in the Democrat Party is behind

0:01:19.560 --> 0:01:22.120
<v Speaker 1>anything or in front of it, depending
