Daines: This is America. We Should Know How Many Citizens vs. Non-Citizens Are Living in Our Country

U.S. SENATE — U.S. Senator Steve Daines today introduced legislation to include the citizenship question on all government census forms. “This is America,” Daines said. “We are a sovereign nation. It’s absurd that we don’t know how many citizens and non-citizens are living in this country. That’s why I’m introducing this bill to require a citizenship question on the census.” To download audio of the statement, click HERE.
