The Census Bureau is asking the public for feedback on how people will be counted in the next decennial census. The proposal would eliminate collecting racial data for the first time since 1790 and would exclude all noncitizens except green card holders — even those living here legally — from the count. Your comment can make a difference — and it only takes a minute.
