Criticized over recent appointees, Census adds another hire
ORLANDO, Fla. — Amid calls for investigations into whether two recent hires for top positions at the U.S. Census Bureau were politically motivated, the nation’s top statistical agency said Monday it was hiring a third new deputy director as the bureau enters the homestretch of its once-a-decade head count of every U.S. resident. Critics have said other efforts at politicizing the Census Bureau include the Trump administration’s failed attempt to add a citizenship question to the 2020 census questionnaire and an order President Donald Trump, a Republican, issued last month that attempts to exclude people in the country illegally from being counted during the process of redrawing congressional districts. “Coupled with clear political interference from the White House in the implementation of the census, public confidence in the integrity of the Census Bureau’s work and, just as damaging, the data it publishes, could suffer.” The Census Bureau’s watchdog agency, the Office of Inspector General, has asked for information about the hiring of Cogley and Korzeniewski. A management alert issued last week by the watchdog agency said the Census Bureau was unaware of the missing laptops from last year’s address verification process, which preceded the start of the once-a-decade head count of every U.S. resident earlier this year, until the watchdog alerted them.
