Das Census Bureau konnte die Verarbeitung der f\u00fcr die Aufteilung verwendeten Daten nicht vor dem Ende der Amtszeit von Pr\u00e4sident Trump am 20. Januar 2021 abschlie\u00dfen und geht davon aus, dass die Aufteilungsz\u00e4hlungen erst abgeschlossen sein werden, wenn\u00a0<a href=\"https:\/\/www.census.gov\/newsroom\/press-releases\/2021\/statement-apportionment-counts.html\">30.

Juli 2020 hat Pr\u00e4sident Donald Trump\u00a0<a href=\"https:\/\/trumpwhitehouse.archives.gov\/presidential-actions\/memorandum-excluding-illegal-aliens-apportionment-base-following-2020-census\/\">ein Memo herausgegeben<\/a> describing his administration\u2019s intent to implement a discriminatory and unconstitutional policy regarding the census. This memo directed the Secretary of Commerce to provide the President with the information necessary to exclude undocumented people from being counted in upcoming congressional seat allocations.\r\n\r\nOn July 23, 2020, Common Cause sued the\u00a0President in the U.S.\u00a0District\u00a0Court for the District of Columbia. We and our co-plaintiffs challenged this transparent effort to deprive cities and communities with large immigrant populations of equal representation in Congress and to threaten their ability to access federal resources\u00a0that\u00a0rely\u00a0on census data.\u00a0<a href=\"https:\/\/www.commoncause.org\/wp-content\/uploads\/2025\/03\/cc-v-trump-2nd-amended.pdf\">Lesen Sie hier die Beschwerde.<\/a>\r\n\r\nThe plain language of the law makes it clear that the Trump Administration\u2019s order is illegal.\u00a0The 14th Amendment requires that the \u201cwhole number of persons in each state\u201d be used to determine the allocation of seats in the House of Representatives, and federal law requires that the Secretary of Commerce send to the President the \u201ctabulation of total population by states\u201d and for the President to then send to Congress a statement showing the \u201cwhole number of persons\u201d in each state.\r\n\r\nOral arguments in the U.S. District Court for the District of Columbia\u00a0<a href=\"https:\/\/www.youtube.com\/watch?v=M_KHcsYFRlQ\">fand am 29. September 2020 statt<\/a>Das Bezirksgericht\u00a0<a href=\"https:\/\/www.commoncause.org\/wp-content\/uploads\/2020\/11\/2020-1125-Common-Cause-v.-Trump-district-court-order.pdf\">entschieden am 25. November 2020<\/a>\u00a0dass der Fall noch nicht entscheidungsreif sei, da unklar sei, wie die Trump-Administration das Memo genau umsetzen werde.\r\n<h3>Kl\u00e4ger aus dem ganzen Land<\/h3>\r\nNeben Common Cause waren die St\u00e4dte Atlanta (GA), Clarkston (GA), Dayton (OH), El Paso (TX), Paterson (NJ), Portland (OR), South Pasadena (CA) und El Monte Union High School District (CA) Regierungskl\u00e4ger.
