Trump Wants New Census; Says Illegals will Not be Counted

President Donald Trump declared on Truth Social that he has directed the Commerce Department to start working on a new census, noting that illegal aliens in the U.S. will not be included in the population count.

"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," the president said in the post. 

"People who are in our Country illegally WILL NOT BE COUNTED IN THE CENSUS. Thank you for your attention to this matter!" he added.
