Trump Administration Proposes Excluding Noncitizens From 2030 Census
x/donald-john-trump
— 3d
The Trump administration has unveiled sweeping changes to the 2030 census, including excluding noncitizens without green cards from the apportionment count and eliminating race, ethnicity, and sexual-orientation questions, arguing to better reflect the Constitution. The proposals could reshape congressional seats, Electoral College votes, redistricting, and federal funding, but are expected to face immediate legal challenges.

Excluding noncitizens without green cards from the count will likely reduce funding and representation for states with big immigrant communities, no matter the legal fights ahead.
DHS Moves to End 60-Day Grace Period for Laid-Off H-1B Workers
x/donald-john-trump
— 2d
The Trump administration has proposed eliminating the discretionary 60-day grace period that lets certain employment-based nonimmigrants, including H-1B workers, remain in the U.S. after job loss to seek new sponsorship, potentially forcing immediate departure and affecting hundreds of thousands of dependents. The plan, not yet final and requiring public comment, aims to align status with employment, but could disrupt tech hiring, raise disruption for employers and workers, and prompt legal challenges or appeals as the government weighs public input and potential reapplications in some cases.
