    Given that the long form questions have been moved from the Census to the ACS this measure is appalling and a tragedy if passed.

    Knowledge is power. In the 21st century we know that knowledge is the fuel for our economy. It is just as important for effective governance.

    As a researcher, educator and American citizen, I urge you to continue funding this vital survey that we depend upon. Refusing to ask questions does not make problems go away. It is crucial that we continue to collect and share this information. Thanks you.
