[2020 Census\Republican Fraud]
Missouri Congressman Clay: “First, the Trump Administration tried to rig the 2020 Census with a racist citizenship question to intentionally increase the undercount of non-white persons. And now, they send an “imitation census” mailing to confuse Americans while trying to raise money for the President’s reelection. With every action, this president and his enablers show their complete contempt for the truth, the rule of law and the Constitution.”

[Census 2020]
Congressional Chairwoman Karen Bass: “During the last census count in 2010, African Americans were undercounted by over 800,000. That is totally unacceptable, and we must close the gap and ensure higher Black participation in the 2020 census so that our communities do not miss out on the federal resources we need the most. The Trump Administration has made a number of policy statements and changes that many of us in the Black Caucus find troubling.”
