Trump Orders New Census in Election Power Grab

President Donald Trump has ordered his Commerce Department to change the U.S. Census in a move that could significantly bolster his chances at the next election.

After pushing to redraw maps in Texas to advantage Republicans, the president announced on Thursday that he had instructed his department to work on a new census that does not take into account undocumented immigrants.

“I have instructed our Department of Commerce to immediately begin work on a new and highly accurate CENSUS based on modern day facts and figures and, importantly, using the results and information gained from the Presidential Election of 2024,” he wrote on Truth Social.
