Trump census plan to cut noncitizens from 2030 count faces legal challenge
The proposal says the Census Bureau could add an immigration status question to the census's short-form questionnaire.
Sen. Andy Kim said the rule is an attack on democracy by Donald Trump.
The rule would exclude from the census millions of noncitizens without a green card, including people on student visas, people with temporary protected status, refugees and asylum seekers.
