Это то пустяки, а только что прочёл про Калифорнииское безумие:

California Attorney General Xavier Becerra said late Monday he is filing a lawsuit against the Trump administration over its decision to include a question on citizenship in the 2020 Census.
(а у Census ведь главная цель - распределение мест в конгресс и выборщиков президента !)

The Department of Justice under Attorney General Jeff Sessions has pushed for inclusion of the question, arguing that it would allow the the department to better enforce the Voting Rights Act.
(польза от Sessions !)

However, Democrats have expressed concerns that adding the question would result in an inaccurate population count because it would discourage some immigrants from filling out the questionnaire, given the Trump administration's crackdown on those in the country illegally.
Several lawmakers voiced opposition to the announcement on Monday night. ...

But GOP Rep. Warren Davidson (Ohio) spoke out in favor of the Trump administration's decision, arguing representation in the House "should be based on citizens, not on residents.
"For example, California gets roughly three extra members of Congress based on estimates of illegal residents."
