Proposing we ALL just pledge not to answer the citizenship question if it winds up on the census form, as this otherwise fine piece does, may feel good but is too unlikely to work for it to avoid the undercount of the very communities Ross wants to hurt. https://t.co/dSCpgar00W — PolitiTweet.org

Anyone wanna bet that, even if the 2020 census forms are finally distributed without the citizenship question, Trump will refrain from tweeting “Only forms with write-in answers to that question will be accepted by Wilbur Ross”? Would you put that past him? I wouldn’t. — PolitiTweet.org

No, Wilbur Ross CANNOT now justify including a citizenship question in the census as a means of implementing the requirement of 14th Am §2 that a state’s congressional delegation be reduced in the % by which it disenfranchises some (eg non-white) voting-eligible citizens. — PolitiTweet.org

Even if, as some claim, the president’s duty to faithfully execute the laws requires him to keep an accurate count of citizens in each state in order to “execute” the mandate of 14th Am sec 2, he needn’t use the census to that end. His executive agencies keep that count current. — PolitiTweet.org

@tribelaw Serios question: the census stuff is in Article 1. Since when has the President (Article 2) been in charge of the census?
Laurence Tribe @tribelaw
Probably right. MEMO TO @SpeakerPelosi: The principal “standing” accorded the House is its exclusive POWER OF IMPEACHMENT, which can’t be shoved under the “Let the voters decide” rug without erasing a key part of our system for remaining a government of laws, not men — or women. — PolitiTweet.org

To “execute” sec 4, POTUS would need to ignore the debt ceiling AND (a) usurp Art I borrowing and/or taxing powers to pay debts Congress incurred by its spending decisions but hasn’t authorized raising the funds to cover and (b) exercise Art III power to “hold” the ceiling void. — PolitiTweet.org

Sec 4 is mandatory too (“The validity of the public debt of the United States . . . shall not be questioned”) but Obama and Geithner were right to decide that didn’t empower POTUS to take Bill Clinton’s advice and just raise the debt ceiling unilaterally. https://t.co/sIa2yBv3nw — PolitiTweet.org

MEMO TO POTUS: Proposing that you invoke 14th Am §2 to support adding a citizenship question to the 2020 census is fatally flawed: 14th Am §5 gives ONLY CONGRESS, not POTUS, power to enforce §§ 1 through 4 (re honoring the nation’s debts). Sorry! https://t.co/sIa2yBv3nw — PolitiTweet.org

For a thoughtful take on this Trump trainwreck, read @harrylitman here. My main disagreement: I think a career DOJ lawyer should tell his or her client, the president, “Sir, I’ll respectfully resign unless you rescind your reckless, law-defying tweet.” https://t.co/1vmQyyskf1 — PolitiTweet.org
