The Supreme Courts decision to allow the Trump administration to end the 2020 census was another case of whiplash for the census, which has faced stops from the pandemic, natural disasters and court rulings. “The Trump administration is acting out of fear. By sticking to the Dec. 31 deadline, the Trump administration would end up controlling the numbers used for the apportionment, no matter who wins next month’s presidential election. The Census Bureau pushed an end-of-July deadline for concluding the count to the end of October because of the virus. Whether that Dec. 31 deadline holds is still being decided in the courts.

(AP Photo/LM Otero)ORLANDO, Fla. – The U.S. Census Bureau is cutting its schedule for data collection for the 2020 census a month short as legislation that would have extended the national head count's deadlines stalls in Congress. Some of the 500,000 door knockers hired by the Census Bureau have begun visiting those households, but they weren't expected to go out in force until next week. Top Census Bureau officials have said it would be impossible to meet the end-of-the-year deadline, and that the bureau expected bipartisan support for the request. Maloney on Tuesday introduced an update to the legislation pending in Congress that would give the Census Bureau more time by pushing back the deadlines to the later dates. Critics say the move to speed up the deadlines is just the latest Trump administration effort to politicize the 2020 census, starting with a failed attempt to add a citizenship question to the form.
