Walkinshaw (VA-11) released the following statement warning that the Trump administration\u2019s proposed changes to the U.S. Census could shortchange communities that rely on census data for federal funding.\n\n\u201cDonald Trump is trying to weaponize the U.S. Census to intimidate immigrant families and scare them from participating. His so-called citizenship question would not just undercount immigrant communities. It would shortchange communities across America.\n\nCensus data help determine how federal funding reaches schools, roads, hospitals, emergency services, and other essential needs. An undercount would not reduce the need for those services. It would leave states and local communities with fewer resources and force local taxpayers to shoulder more of the burden.\n\nAs the late Congressman Gerry Connolly\u2019s Chief of Staff, I helped him fight back against Trump\u2019s first attempt to add a citizenship question ahead of the 2020 Census.\n\nTrump\u2019s effort failed then, and it will fail now.\u201d\n\n###", 1, "2026-09-15T09:50:21Z", "2026-09-15T09:52:05Z"]], "columns": ["url", "title", "date", "year", "month", "party", "chamber", "state", "member_name", "bioguide_id", "domain", "scraper", "source", "date_source", "text", "has_text", "collected_at", "updated_at"], "primary_keys": ["url"], "primary_key_values": ["https://walkinshaw.house.gov/news/documentsingle.aspx?DocumentID=817"], "units": {}, "query_ms": 5.780545063316822, "source": "dwillis/congress-press", "source_url": "https://github.com/dwillis/congress-press", "license": "MIT", "license_url": "https://github.com/dwillis/congress-press/blob/main/LICENSE"}
