The Supreme Court agreed Sept. 30 to expedite consideration of the Trump administration’s appeal of a lower court ruling barring the government from excluding illegal aliens from the 2020 Census count.

The administration wants to keep illegal aliens out of the census count, which will determine how congressional seats and federal dollars are allocated.
