US President Donald Trump has ordered the Department of Commerce to begin work on a new census that excludes undocumented immigrants, marking a renewed push to redraw electoral maps in favor of Republicans and reduce the political power of Democratic-leaning voters.
Announcing the move on Truth Social, Trump declared that “people who are in our Country illegally WILL NOT BE COUNTED IN THE CENSUS,” adding that the updated census should be “highly accurate” and based on data from the 2024 presidential election.
