Attorney General Bill Barr, speaking after Trump, acknowledged the administration would face continued legal battles if it continued to push for the census question.
The Trump administration is ending its quest to include a hotly contested citizenship question on the 2020 census despite apparent popular support for the move, President Donald Trump announced in a Rose Garden press conference Thursday evening.
Fifty-two percent of U.S. adult citizens back Trump's attempt to ask about citizenship on the 2020 census, according to a new Economist/YouGov poll. The survey, which had a margin of error of 2.9 percent, was released on Wednesday and questioned 1,500 U.S. adult citizens. Attorney General Bill Barr, speaking after Trump, acknowledged the administration would face continued legal battles if it continued to push for the census question and could not"complete the litigation in time to carry out the census."
The Census Bureau's own researchers have determined that asking U.S. residents about citizenship on the 2020 census could lead to an undercount by 8 percent of households with at least one non-citizen. This would translate to a total of nine million people excluded from government census data and many, if not most, of whom would be Hispanic.
