Census Bureau s proposed changes threaten to undercount people with disabilities, advocates say

The Census Bureau has proposed a major change to disability questions on its annual American Community Survey that advocates say will reduce the number of people who are counted as disabled by 40 percent, including millions of women and girls. The change in available data could affect federal funding allocations and the decisions government agencies make about accessible housing, public transit and civil rights enforcement, they argue.
