CENSUS/DEMS/HOUSE OF REPS/TRUMP AS PRESIDENT/TRUMP PEOPLE: “The House Oversight Committee’s Democratic staff charged in a memo on Friday [6-7-19] that the White House ‘interfered directly and aggressively’ with a previously undisclosed interview the panel conducted Monday [6-3-19] with former Kansas Secretary of State Kris Kobach related to the Trump administration’s push to include a citizenship question in the 2020 census. The memo, which was sent by the majority staff of the Democratic-led panel to committee members and released publicly, said the White House ‘interfered directly and aggressively with the Committee’s interview by instructing Mr. Kobach not to answer any questions about his communications with the President and White House advisors about the real reasons they added the citizenship question.’”
