Trump proposes excluding immigrants from US census count

The Trump administration has put forward a plan to strip certain legal and undocumented immigrants from the census figures used to apportion seats in the House of Representatives — a move that would redraw political power away from high-immigration states toward whiter, more rural ones. The proposal lands as a separate redistricting fight in Missouri heads to the Supreme Court on an emergency filing, with opponents challenging a Trump-backed map set to be used in November's midterms.
