News Wrap: DOJ won’t charge Barr or Ross with criminal contempt over census

In our news wrap Wednesday, the Justice Department declined to pursue criminal contempt charges against Attorney General William Barr and Commerce Secretary Wilbur Ross. House Democrats had voted to cite them for refusing to turn over documents on adding a citizenship question to the 2020 census. Also, Boris Johnson took over as the United Kingdom’s prime minister, succeeding Theresa May.
