Call your state legislators and insist they approve the Article V convention of States to propose amendments.
I pledge allegiance to the Constitution as written and understood by this nation's founders, and to the Republic it created, an indivisible union of sovereign States, with liberty and justice for all.

The question was on the census for a very long time. I have lots of problems with the Census. It asks too many questions. It should ask one question: How many citizens or lawful permanent residents live at this address. No other question is needed to satisfy the Constitution.

Are you sure an illegal alien, subject to arrest and deportation if captured constitutes a "free person"? I have asked the question before, maybe you can answer it... What harm is done from determining the number of actual citizens residing in the country? Why should it NOT be on the census?

SCOTUS did not apply the correct standard of government action under the Administrative Procedure Act. Not sure what they were thinking.
They got it right for partisan gerrymandering. They held that it was a political issue, not a judicial issue.

Some proponents of asking the question suggest that it would only deter residents who are not citizens from participating...but that is clearly not the case. They forget (or ignore the fact) that census forms are filled out and submitted for entire households - not individuals (unless, of course, they live alone). If I am a legal citizen and there are members of my household who are not, and I read that there are penalties (although rarely administered) for answering any question on the form untruthfully, I may choose to play it safe and just not fill it out at all. In fact, demographers and other social scientists have concluded that this is exactly what will happen if the citizenship question is added to the form - resulting in a serious under count of certain groups, which is - according to all the evidence - exactly what the Administration sought to accomplish.

This is my Opinion and only opinion. John Roberts is friends GWBush who appointed him. GWBush and his Brother Jeb is all in for illegal immigration and making them all citizens, they also hate trump. I think Roberts favors the Bushs leanings.
Having said that I wouldnt mind if Roberts resigned
