Additionally, In his “Build Back Better” plan, Biden will:

Donald Trump’s campaign platform does not address Census 2020. However, he has addressed the issue on Twitter:

“Seems totally ridiculous that our government, and indeed Country, cannot ask a basic question of Citizenship in a very expensive, detailed and important Census, in this case for 2020. I have asked the lawyers if they can delay the Census, no matter how long, until the United States Supreme Court is given additional information from which it can make a final and decisive decision on this very critical matter. Can anyone really believe that as a great Country, we are not able the ask whether or not someone is a Citizen. Only in America!” — 12:37 PM · Jun 27, 2019
