Chief Justice John Roberts faces another test over whether Census forms will include a citizenship question. Census Bureau officials have predicted the inquiry would lead to a lower response rate and an undercount of Hispanic and non-citizen households.
Now the Supreme Court faces a high-profile test of a major Trump agenda item and the question is how Roberts' declaration of independence, along with his new role at the ideological center of the court, might affect the tone of Tuesday's oral arguments and an ultimate decision affecting the 2020 census.
"Roberts' new role on the courtThe retirement of Justice Anthony Kennedy last year, and Trump's appointment of Justice Brett Kavanaugh to succeed him, hardened the Supreme Court's 5-4, conservative-liberal split. It also put Roberts, long to the right of Kennedy, at the ideological median point.At the same time, the tumultuous Kavanaugh confirmation hearings last fall prompted increased public concerns about the high court's independence.
