Census projects on gender identity/"DEI" topics are being paused...

It's absurd (repressive) to halt ALREADY IN PROGRESS academic research on topics you dislike.

The data we share with Census is OUR data. We deserve to learn as much as we can (as responsibly as we can) from it.

The correct answer is always R2. And then after that, committee meetings to restructure a program that was just restructured last year by a different committee.

How many Americans really want mass deportation? Even among Republicans and conservatives, support for the policy comes with caveats.

Not sure if this hits the mark but this article has various sources to polls: reason.com/2024/12/17/h...
