It takes time for the courts to consider that. There would be even more months. if not a year. before the Census Bureau could know whether or not they could proceed with the census questionnaire that they now have. so I say that agreeing to the Senate amendment is not a good thing to do. Now. the administration says they will veto the bill if the Senate amendment requiring the exclusion of the counting of illegal aliens for reapportionment purposes is in the final version of the bill. Usually threats of vetoes do not affect me very much. We get such threats all the time up here and we still do whatever we think is right.
