U.S. President-elect Joe Biden on Tuesday said he hoped the U.S. Supreme Court rejects a Trump administration bid to exclude immigrants living illegally in the United States from population counts used to allocate congressional districts to states.
āWe canāt keep rewriting history, scrambling norms, and ignoring the Constitution and the precedents we abide by. It is my hope the Supreme Court does the right thingā and rules that āeveryone in Americaā be counted, Biden said in a statement.
