	Wilbur Ross on Immigration

Citizenship on census vital to enforce Voting Rights Act

The Trump administration insisted that its decision to alter the Census [by adding a question asking the respondent about their U.S. citizenship] was rooted in only the purest of motives--specifically, a heartfelt desire to protect the voting rights of African-Americans. Commerce Secretary Wilbur Ross explained that his bureau only began considering the citizenship question after the Department of Justice indicated that it needed such information to fully enforce the Voting Rights Act of 1965.
