Salt Lake City hiring a full-time census coordinator to avert an undercount many fear is likely with Trump’s new immigration question

President Donald Trump speaks during a rally, Saturday, Aug. 4, 2018, in Lewis Center, Ohio. The Trump administration’s announcement in March that it would ask respondents about their immigration status has raised concerns among many, including Utah's Latino legislators. In light of that change and others, the Salt Lake City Council recently approved a full-time census coordinator position to help avoid an undercount among hard-to-reach populations.
