“It is paramount that the American people have confidence, and the people who are going to go door-to-door next April 10 and conduct a census, and what is concerning we have suddenly about 1800 people that have actually got a criminal background. Nearly 750 people have salacious backgrounds such as child molestation, rape. You even have some people convicted of manslaughter that have been brought into the process. I give credit to the Census Bureau for actually conducting background checks and doing fingerprinting and working with the FBI, but what is not acceptable is that tens of thousands of these were done improperly, so we do not know the background of these people.”

He’s being a bit slippery here…he doesn’t actually say that “the people who are going door-to-door next April 10” will include “nearly 750 people [who] have salacious backgrounds[…]” (he couldn’t say that, because it isn’t true; some of them have been fired, and others are being “further reviewed”, though I’d like to know what that means). He just puts those phrases awfully close to each other.
