Ex-Attorney General Meese and Historian Gonzalez proposed in a February 28 WSJ-published article the 2020 Census to do away with pan-ethnic group designations altogether and only ask questions about national descent, and going back only as far as grandparents.

Except one reservation: we would like to respectfully request the ethnic origin only goes back to parents instead of grandparents as we see most second generation well assimilated in local communities.
