Re: 2020 Census Detailed DHC-A

Advancing Justice | AAJC appreciates that the Census Bureau recognizes the importance of producing disaggregated, detailed data for the 2020 Census because this data are critical to our diverse community. Given that the Bureau considered not producing such data due to privacy disclosure concerns, we applaud the Bureau’s decision to take an innovative approach to ensure it could indeed produce detailed data under the new Disclosure Avoidance System (DAS). However, there are also areas of concerns that we would like to bring to your attention.
