Trump officials cut political interference ban after unusual Census Bureau report

The Census Bureau is a government agency. It makes important reports about people in the country. Recently, the bureau made a new report. This report has information that is connected to a special group. This special group supports former President Trump.

After the Census Bureau released this report, a bigger government office made a change. This bigger office is the boss of the Census Bureau. This office cut some old rules. These rules are part of a "scientific integrity policy." They said that politics should not be part of science. Now, the part that stops political ideas is gone.

This change means that science work might not be free from politics anymore. People worry about this. They think that science information must always be fair and true. It must not have any political ideas in it. A news company called NPR learned about these changes and reported them. It is important to know how government groups work and if their report information is always fair for all citizens.
