President Trump announced Thursday he would sign an executive order to obtain data about the U.S. citizenship and non-citizenship status of everyone living in the United States.
In a Rose Garden ceremony, Trump said he would drop efforts to include a citizenship question on the 2020 census. Instead, he'll sign an executive order directing all U.S. agencies to provide the Department of Commerce all information they have on the U.S. citizenship, non-citizenship and immigration status.
"We have great knowledge in many of our agencies," Trump said, flanked by Attorney General William Barr and Commerce Secretary Wilbur Ross. "We will leave no stone unturned."

The left wont stop, they will need to be stoped. Re-electing PT will give us a few more years, but it is coming.
This way we get a count on how many are on food stamps, welfare, medical, SS, and on and on!!! SO in the long run the Dems have just hung themselves BECAUSE once Trump has this information GUESS WHAT he is going to have a Twitter storm AND guess what Americans are going to be PISSED!!! Once this information is in their faces AND their tax dollars are paying for all of this BOOM!!! The Dems would have been much better off just having the question on the census NOW we will get ALL information about just what it is costing the taxpayers for these illegals!!!
The illegal aliens leave footprints in various databases. There are ways to sort them out. SS, IRS, ICE, FBI, etc. records can be cross checked. The Dems are going to fight this tooth and nail claiming privacy rights are being violated. Bring it on.
The Left will say that President Trump is “interfering with the election”. The Democrat/Left Party needs every illegal alien, every felon, every deceased person they can register to vote to have even a remote chance to win the presidency and an even-money chance to hold the House. They are a mess and Pelosi is so disrepected by the extreme Left-wing of her party -— which is growing in numbers and strength every day -— she is no longer leading anything!
And don’t forget the impact on the allocation of federal funds.
The census card isn’t the only medium used to complete the US Census.
perhaps Trump telegraphed his intentions, earlier in the day he ridiculed the census, and its cost of $ 20B
They are already here and their numbers are increasing every day. We have 20 to 30 million of them. And securing the border only solves part of the problem. 40% of the illegal aliens came here legally and overstayed their visas.
I knew he would find a way. My hero. Sigh.
yes need massive deportations
We’ll see. Statistical methods are already allowed for the Census.
“nothing you say means to me illegals will not be included.”
Perhaps if an illegal knows the full name they fill out on the census form will be cross checked for citizen status, that will deter them from adding their name to the household count.
I’ll wager it was Barr’s idea. I think he is a quiet genius.
And so is President Trump for not giving up.
Now, we can regurgitate all the negative, wrong, legal, ethical, things that can happen.
I don’t care how they do it...I LOVE IT AND DON’T CARE HOW LONG IT TAKES.
Elizabeth Mcdonald just said President Trump has “just blown up the swamp.”
This is great.
The point is to make the American people aware of how many illegals are here, I would say between 30 and 40 million
and in his argument, Juan actually said it was wrong to separate “ILLEGAL aliens” from their families, but nobody bothered to ask him if he thought it was wrong to separate convicted criminals from their families.
Brilliant comment.
Democrats will be sorry they didn’t settle for the census!
Questions about citizenship were also already allowed on the census. Will the Supreme Asses order that history destroyed?
