Biden Census Pick Santos Recalls Government Slush Fund for National Council of La Raza

Commentary
Biden pick Robert Santos, a “Latinx statistician,” is being hailed as the nation’s first “census director of color.” If embattled Americans find that puzzling, they might take a look at the Biden pick’s actual record.
The Texas-born Santos serves as vice president of the Urban Institute, where “his specialty areas include undocumented immigrants and other disadvantaged populations.” In 2007, Santos co-authored “Paying the Price: The Impact of Immigration Raids on America’s Children,” a publication (pdf) that was produced for the National Council of La Raza (NCLR), an organization with origins that Americans might find troubling.
