Facing criticism over efforts to produce citizenship data to comply with an order from President Donald Trump, U.S. Census Bureau director Steven Dillingham said Monday that he planned to resign with the change in presidential administrations. Dillingham said in a statement that he would resign on Wednesday, the day Trump leaves the White House and President-elect Joseph Biden takes office. The Census Bureau director’s plan to resign comes as the statistical agency is in the middle of crunching the numbers for the 2020 census, which will be used to determine how many congressional seats and Electoral College votes each state gets, as well as the distribution of $1.5 trillion in federal spending each year. Last week, Democratic lawmakers called on Dillingham to resign after a watchdog agency said he had set a deadline that pressured statisticians to produce a report on the number of people in the U.S. illegally.

REUTERS / Brian AdamsWASHINGTON (Reuters) - The U.S. Census Bureau’s embattled director resigned on Monday and will retire on Wednesday, the day Democratic President-elect Joe Biden is inaugurated, according to a letter on the bureau’s website. Steven Dillingham has faced accusations that he supported a partisan push to deliver data to Republican President Donald Trump before the end of his term, the Washington Post said. The U.S. Census Bureau in December said it would miss a year-end deadline to produce the population count used to divide seats in the House of Representative between the states.

WASHINGTON (Reuters) - The U.S. Census Bureau’s embattled director on Monday announced he is resigning nearly a year ahead of schedule and will retire on Wednesday, the day Democratic President-elect Joe Biden is inaugurated, according to a letter on the bureau’s website. FILE PHOTO: U.S. Census Bureau Director, Dr. Steven Dillingham holds up his U.S. Census bags, one from 1890 which was a gift from his wife, in the Ravn Air terminal in Bethel, Alaska U.S., January 21, 2020. In June 2019, the U.S. Supreme Court blocked Trump’s contentious citizenship question planned for the 2020 census because officials gave a rationale the court characterized as “contrived.”Trump then issued an executive order directing the Census Bureau to determine the number of undocumented immigrants through other means. The U.S. Census Bureau last month said it would miss a year-end deadline to produce the population count. Dillingham on Monday called on Congress to begin data collection a year earlier for the 2030 census.

ET Live Updates: As Biden’s Inauguration Approaches Pressure Mounts on Some Trump Appointees The director of the Census Bureau resigned after claims that he politicized his role. The bureau acknowledged this month that it would be unable to produce the immigrant count sought by the administration before Mr. Trump left office. The report denounces the project, as did Mr. Trump in his September speech announcing the commission. Mr. Trump’s administration reversed that decision in early 2017, giving a green light for construction of the project to begin. The three choices are either strong loyalists to Mr. Trump or fierce critics of Ms. Whitmer.

“He should have immediately denounced the mob when he saw what was unfolding.” “These facts require immediate actions by President Trump,” he continued. A few Republicans defended him, but most others simply argued that a rush to impeach Mr. Trump without a hearing or an investigation raised constitutional questions.

Mayor Muriel Bowser of Washington sent a letter to Mr. Trump on Sunday asking for an emergency declaration to obtain additional funding for inauguration security.

"The delay suggests that the census bureau needs more time to ensure the accuracy of census numbers for all states," said Terri Ann Lowenthal, a former congressional staffer who specializes in census issues. The Commerce Department oversees the Census Bureau, which conducts the once-a-decade headcount of every U.S. resident. "For the Census Bureau, goals No. The Census Bureau hasn't publicly revealed how it plans to determine who is in the country illegally since the Supreme Court last year prohibited a citizenship question from being added to the census questionnaire.

Although the Census Bureau is working to produce a final report to President Donald Trump by the Dec. 31 deadline, advocates and even some census staffers have expressed doubt that it will be able to do so. "And we have to listen to the data scientists that say we need more time and ensure that politics, politicians and partisans are not allowed to interrupt their work and manipulate the data.

Demonstrators rally at the Supreme Court on April 23, 2019, to protest a proposal to add a citizenship question to the 2020 census. The Census Bureau said in a statement that the public should have confidence in the data because it is not only using career professionals within the bureau, but also working with outside experts to evaluate the data, and because it will release detailed data metrics for the first time.

☆ Census Delays Would Prevent Trump Immigrant Exclusion Plan

Census Bureau schedules indicate the agency needs until Jan. 23 to complete the 2020 count and transmit apportionment figures to the president, a House committee said Wednesday. The delay would prevent President Trump from excluding unauthorized immigrants from the decennial count of the population that redistributes seats in the House of Representatives and votes in the Electoral College. It concluded that census officials have identified at least 15 anomalies in the data that affect more than one million census records. Census Bureau Director Steven Dillingham said in mid-November that anomalies had been discovered in processing. If Mr. Trump can’t relay the figures before he leaves office Jan. 20, President-elect Joe Biden would handle it.
