To be clear, I think it's useful to collect racial and religious information in a national census. It's been critical in enforcing civil rights and equal representation. American institutions around freedom of religion and the right of privacy are key to keeping national censuses forces for good instead of tools for oppression. We should do whatever we can to maintain strong, healthy American institutions that protect freedom of religion.
