Trump Proposes Controversial Changes to the U.S. Census
Former President Trump is advocating for significant changes to the U.S. Census, specifically calling for a new census that excludes undocumented immigrants. This initiative comes amidst ongoing redistricting efforts by the Republican Party. Critics are voicing concerns over the constitutional implications and potential impacts on federal representation and funding, particularly in states like Wisconsin. As Trump orders the Commerce Department to begin preparations for this census, legal experts question the feasibility and legality of counting only certain populations. The proposal has ignited a fierce debate over who should be counted in America, raising alarms about potential violations of constitutional norms.
