I have written before about an eleventh-hour proposal of the Obama administration to further embed racial and ethnic identity politics into, among other things, the Census questions, particularly by adding a new racial/ethnic category (“Middle Eastern or North African”) and changing the treatment of the ”Latino” as well. The good news is that the Trump administration announced Friday it will not go down this road. My earlier posts drew on the good work of Mike Gonzalez at the Heritage Foundation, so readers might be interested in his take on this latest development as well.
