“Trump signs order targeting undocumented immigrants in the US census” |
Friend,
Did you see this breaking news? Trump is launching yet another attack on the 2020 Census.
Let’s be clear: This is a political power grab. Excluding people from apportionment -- the process by which congressional districts are allocated among the states and through which critical federal funding is distributed for a decade -- means giving disproportionate political power to Trump’s political allies. To put a finer point on it, Trump is threatening to give more power to white and Republican communities while taking it away from immigrant communities and communities of color. This is an unconstitutional scare tactic and we can’t let it stand.
Trump was forced to back down on his attempt to add a citizenship question to the 2020 Census, and we can beat him again on this. Will you chip in today to help the NDRC fight back and demand a fair 2020 Census in which EVERYONE is counted?
