| Utah Files Lawsuit Over LDS Missionary Census Exclusion |
| The Utah Attorney General's office filed a
lawsuit in US District Court Wednesday morning, alleging that the US
Census Bureau discriminated against LDS missionaries in the 2000
census. According to the complaint and to Bureau statements, the
Bureau excluded LDS missionaries and other US citizens living abroad
in its count while including overseas Federal employees such as
diplomats and military personnel. As a result of this "disparate
treatment," North Carolina was apportioned an additional seat in the
US Congress that would have otherwise gone to Utah. |
| Hatch Calls For Clinton Pardon |

Utah Senator Orrin Hatch, an LDS Church member, called for President-elect
George W. Bush to pardon President Bill Clinton. The remarks were just the
latest in a series of conciliatory statements Hatch has made toward the
President. |
