Immigrant Groups Endorse Donald Trump’s Plan To Include Citizenship Question In U.S. Census

6BFEF730-C086-49F4-9817-3CAA68C73DA2WASHINGTON, D.C. (The Adobo Chronicles, Washington Bureau) – Democratic attorneys general in several states said Tuesday they would bring legal action to stop the Trump administration from adding a question on citizenship to the next U.S. census, a question they said would lead to serious undercounts that could reverberate for years to come.

The administration said late Tuesday it would include a question on the decennial survey that would ask whether respondents are American citizens.

But in a very unexpected reaction, the National Coalition of Undocumented Immigrants (NCUI) has formally endorsed Trump’s controversial proposal.

NCUI told The Adobo Chronicles that should the question appear in the next Census, it will ask all of its 12.5 Million members to answer ‘yes’ and say they are American citizens.

”In effect, the Census results will change the government’s policies and strategies around immigration.  With practically no undocumented immigrants to count, Trump’s anti-immigrant policies will become moot and academic,” a spokesperson for NCUI said.

So, bring it on, Mr. Trump!

 

 

Shawee Running For Senator In 2019?

325C8218-A103-40B8-9F43-3903E08533D0MANILA, Philippines (The Adobo Chronicles, Manila Bureau) – Marriage counselors are never lacking in advice and therapy for troubled marriages. One particular marriage counselor has a sound and practical advice for Shawee (Sharon Cuneta), wife of Opposition Senator Kiko Pangilinan.

Rumors about the couple’s rocky marriage abound on social media and other circles.

The counselor’s advice?  Shawee should run for Senator in 2019.  He says it would be the best come-back for the singer-actress for all the issues she has had against her husband.

The counselor added that Shawee should run under the administration’s ticket — PDP-Laban.

It is no secret that Shawee has been seen with Duterte lately.  Just last night, she led in the singing of ‘Happy Birthday’ for the president’s 73rd birthday celebration.

Neither Shawee nor Pangilinan responded to our requests for an interview.  So for now, let this remain a speculation.

Well, decades later, across the Pacific, the song ‘Happy Birthday Mr. President’ was reenacted by Filipino actress and singer Shawee (Sharon Cuneta), wife of Opposition Senator Kiko Pangilinan.

Pangilinan was furious.

The occasion: President Rodrigo Duterte’s 73rd birthday.
