NEW: Asked again if he is going to delay the #2020Census, President Trump tells reporters at the White House: "We're looking at that very strongly."

"You go through all this detail, and you're not allowed to ask whether or not somebody is a citizen?"

From my rough transcript👇
2. Asked why it's so important for a #CitizenshipQuestion to be on the #2020Census, President Trump said: "I think it's very important to find out if somebody's a citizen as opposed to an illegal."
3. The #CitizenshipQuestion the Trump administration tried to get on the #2020Census DOES NOT ask about immigration status. Noncitizens living in the U.S. would not have to identify themselves as green card holders or unauthorized immigrants -- just "No, not a U.S. citizen"👇

THREAD: While we wait to hear if the Trump admin won't try again for #CitizenshipQuestion, here are all the times US Solicitor General Noel Francisco told the Supreme Court that #2020Census forms needed to be finalized by yesterday (June 30) so printing can start today (July 1)👇
2. On Jan. 25: "...the Census Bureau must finalize the census forms by the end of June 2019 to print them on time for the 2020 decennial census" (p. 36 of PDF)👇 supremecourt.gov/DocketPDF/18/1…
3. On Jan. 25: "...the questions presented must be resolved before the end of June 2019, so that the decennial census questionnaires can be printed on time for the 2020 census" (p. 4)👇

Word is that we MIGHT see the SCOTUS decision on the Census question as early as Monday, which would mean that these Hofeller files-evidence that the GOP did attempt to fix this, won't affect the outcome. #SaturdayMotivation

2-"But after the Hofeller files came to light earlier this month, civil rights groups asked U.S. District Judge Jesse Furman in New York to consider sanctions against the government, and asked the Supreme Court to delay its ruling. In Maryland last week, plaintiffs’ lawyers asked

BREAKING: US District Judge Jesse Furman "vacates Secretary Ross's decision to add a citizenship question to the 2020 census questionnaire" in a 277-page ruling after trial.
(More after SCOTUS opinions.)
More on the Census ruling to come from @dominicholden, but, on the #SCOTUS issue — recall, the court is due to hear a case over the evidence to be used in the trial in February: buzzfeednews.com/article/chrisg… — it's not *exactly* clear what happens now.

Good morning from New York.

The #2020Census trial is about to begin a bit early. The attorneys are introducing themselves, and U.S. District Judge Jesse Furman has taken the bench.

As the SCOTUS denied a last-minute stay, trial ahead. courthousenews.com/taking-up-5-ca…
Note: This is a bench trial.

Furman indicated that he will watch the video of the depositions of John Gore and Earl Comstock, which means that the footage will become public.
Late last night, Gore's deposition became available in transcript form, and it was revealed that Gore confirmed a citizenship question was "not necessary" to enforce the Voting Rights Act, which was Wilbur Ross's justification.

JUST IN: As it said it would do, DOJ asks #SCOTUS, in application to Justice Ginsburg, to halt the upcoming trial in the Census citizenship question case pending the court's action on DOJ's request that SCOTUS resolve whether Commerce Sec. Ross can be deposed in the case.
* = Actually, I should clarify. Since this, technically, is styled as a request to expand the current stay (which came from the full court), I'm not sure whether this will first go to RBG or to the full court. Here's the filing: documentcloud.org/documents/5023…
And, here is DOJ's underlying mandamus petition at #SCOTUS, which is Docket No. 18-557. supremecourt.gov/DocketPDF/18/1…
