The South has the most to lose from a proposed rule rewriting the 2030 Census.

Comments are due November 2nd, 2026. The rule would: • Remove most immigrants from the count • End the race question for the first time since 1790 • Bar any question on sexual orientation or gender identity Most at risk: Black communities, immigrant families, and LGBTQ people in a region where five southern states are already undercounted.
