It is essential that the community becomes aware of how this initiative will affect our communities. This initiative is a radical measure that would damage our ability to address disparities by race of ethnicity in healthcare and disease patterns, educational resources, academic achievement, hate crime and discrimination. The passing of this initiative could have profound negative impact on our government’s agencies as it relates to the effectiveness and quality of services provided. For example, it would remove a critical tool for detecting problems and identifying solutions on a range of topics such as housing, poverty, education, public safety and health care.
