Commerce's Ross says census question aimed at Voting Rights Act enforcement

https://www.reuters.com/article/us-usa-census-ross/commerces-ross-says-census-question-aimed-at-voting-rights-act-enforcement-idUSKCN1QV27O

Quote
“Obtaining complete and accurate information for use in determining citizen age voting populations to enforce the Voting Rights Act is a legitimate government purpose. And I determined that the importance of that goal outweighed any potential decrease in self response rates that may result from people violating their legal duty to respond to the decennial census,” Ross said in his written remarks.

Several parties have brought lawsuits to prohibit the question from being asked by U.S. Census Bureau, which is part of the Commerce Department. The matter is under review by the U.S. Supreme Court.




Good show Ross.

Nice.





Mnuchin says government will shield Trump's tax returns, same as any taxpayer's

https://www.reuters.com/article/us-usa-trump-taxes/mnuchin-says-government-will-shield-trumps-tax-returns-same-as-any-taxpayers-idUSKCN1QV1ZA

Quote
Mnuchin told lawmakers on the House Ways and Means Committee on Thursday he has met with legal experts at the Treasury to discuss the expected request from Democrats.

“We will protect the president as we would protect any individual taxpayer under their rights,” Mnuchin said at a House hearing.

He said he would not speculate on a specific strategy for handling a request from lawmakers because he has not yet received one.




As it should be.

Good show Ross.



Looks like Ross is getting called out on the carpet for potentially lying to Congress about the timing of the request of that question. Ross testified last year to the House Ways and Means Committee that the request for the citizenship question came from the DoJ, when documents have surfaced that point to the request coming directly from HIM much earlier.

That whole article is a nothingburger. The decision is already before the SC. It's just the democrats playing more BS games. :/

The SC case has nothing to do with the fact that if the memo referenced in that article is correct, Ross requested the question months before he claimed that the DoJ did, and as such, lied to Congress about it.
