HOPE GRANT: HHS Survey ousts LGBT questions
I actually saw this article on Tuesday but haven't had a chance to post it until today. Basically, the Trump administration deleted questions on sexuality from two federal surveys, which has people worried. The first survey was intended to gather information for programs funded by the Older Americans Act. The second survey, also by the Department of Health and Human Services, was to gather feedback for counseling, skills training, and other services for the disabled. The article can be read here and I think it can generate a lot of discussion about the new president and administration.
