Commission on Civil Rights needs the data to monitor discrimination based on national od. gin. Without the ancestry question. I fear that data on othnicity will be incomplete or skewed. We are a proud nation of immigrants. and the ancestry question helps us to preserve knowledge about our ethnic heritage for present pollcymakers and for future generations. The ancestry question provides Important Insights Into who we are as a people. how our neighborhoods are constituted. and how we are changing demographically. Knowing this will help us move toward a society that is inclusive and best serves the diverse needs of our American family.
