Contributing sentiments towards policy:

65% : Debate over adding a citizenship question to the census created fear among undocumented immigrants and other groups that is believed to have lowered participation.
52% : One reason Trump pressed the agency to get the work done quickly, experts said, was he wanted to eliminate undocumented immigrants from the state populations for apportioning seats for the U.S. House of Representatives.
50% : Multiple groups sued to block Trump from adding a citizenship question, mostly motivated by concerns that the question would drive down participation among undocumented immigrants who might be concerned their response would be used to deport them and causing an undercount of those groups.
