美国35个州、市、县组成的联盟周五起诉总统唐纳德-特朗普,原因是他在分配众议院席位时指示不要计算无证移民。特朗普周二签署了一份备忘录,禁止2020年的人口普查将无证移民计算在内,这导致从2022年中期选举开始后,在决定如何分配435个众议院席位时,可能会排除几百万人无证移民。这可能导致一些众议院席位从移民人口众多的民主党倾向州转移到共和党倾向州。
大部分倾向民主党的州,如纽约州、伊利诺伊州、马萨诸塞州、密歇根州、新泽西州、宾夕法尼亚州、纽约市、芝加哥、费城和旧金山组成联盟,向曼哈顿联邦法院提起诉讼。原告称特朗普的计划违宪,因为该国的每个人都必须被计算在内,无论其法律地位如何。他们说,自19世纪60年代废除奴隶制以来一直如此,宪法要求根据美国每十年一次的人口普查所统计的每个州的 "整数人 "进行统计。白宫拒绝对此发表评论。
A coalition of 35 U.S. states, cities and counties sued President Donald Trump on Friday over his directive not to count undocumented immigrants when apportioning seats for the House of Representatives, a move that critics have said is designed to help Republicans. Trump’s plan, announced on Tuesday, could exclude several million people when determining how to apportion the 435 House seats, starting with the 2022 midterm elections. It could cause a few House seats to shift from Democratic-leaning states with large immigrant populations to Republican-leaning states. Among the mostly Democratic-leaning plaintiffs are New York state, the most populous plaintiff, Illinois, Massachusetts, Michigan, New Jersey, Pennsylvania, New York City, Chicago, Philadelphia and San Francisco. The White House declined to comment. In the complaint filed in federal court in Manhattan, the plaintiffs called Trump’s plan unconstitutional because everyone in the country must be counted regardless of their legal status. They said this has been true since slavery was abolished in the 1860s, and that the Constitution requires a count based on the “whole number of persons” in each state, as counted in each decennial U.S. census. source
