Uncertainty over the government's future operations and the addition of a citizenship question have left cities bracing for chaos during the upcoming census.

Six lawsuits challenging the legality of the citizenship question, filed by various groups including the states of New York and California, are now pending in federal courts.

California's attorney general has already challenged the Trump administration's decision to include the question in federal court.

A group of Senate Democrats is requesting an investigation into Wendy Teramoto's business ties to the Russian president's billionaire associates.
