Trump officials propose sweeping changes to the census that would reshape voting maps

The Trump administration is proposing a dramatic overhaul around the once-a-decade U.S. Census head count that could leave out millions of immigrants based on status and key racial and ethnic data, jeopardizing the allocation of resources and the count

The proposals for 2030 are among significant changes that would upend a process for helping allot congressional seats and shape policies that address disparities.

Excluding US residents from the once-a-decade population count could have years-long nationwide impacts

A Trump census proposal would stop asking about race and exclude millions of U.S. residents from a count that the 14th Amendment says must include the "whole number of persons in each state."
