We the people ask the federal government to Take or explain a position on an issue or policy:

Enforce equal treatment of Mexican Americans on the census form. OMB has been violating discrimination guidelines.

Created by M.R. on June 16, 2016

Unequal treatment of equals is discrimination. The Mexican American citizens have never been acknowledged by the census bureau. We are not of Hispanic, Latino, or Spanish origin. For the census bureau and OMB to get accurate data there must be a "brown or Mexican American" option to check, as is provided for the "black or African American" population.
