Mr. Speaker, I yield myself such time as I may consume. As my friend knows, the Commerce case held specifically you can ask the citizenship question on the Census. That is true. You can do that. That is what we are proposing. Additionally, he misstated the rationale on why the Commerce case went the way it did. They said you can ask the question, but that the Secretary had contrived his rationale and was in violation of the APA, and that is why that happened. Mr. Speaker, I yield 5 minutes to the gentleman from North Carolina (Mr. Edwards).
