How states responded to Census Bureau driver records request
An effort by the U.S. Census Bureau to collect state driver’s license records as part of President Donald Trump’s order to gather citizenship information has been a bust so far.
As of Wednesday, the vast majority of state motor vehicle agencies had no plans to share their records with the bureau, according to an Associated Press survey of the 50 states. In the survey, state motor vehicle agencies were asked if they had plans to share their records with the bureau. Officials in many states were reviewing the request and hadn’t decided how to respond, and many states hadn’t yet received a request.
Below are the survey’s results.
