Excerpts from article:
..."Do I look white to you?" Tlaib asked Dillingham.
...Dillingham began to explain that there is a write-in option on the census to compensate for people who don't feel a category accurately depicts their background.
...Tlaib cut him off and said that "Circling white" on the census changed her "Lived experience as a person of color" in the United States.
...Tlaib also suggested that incorrectly identifying oneself on the census could negatively affect civil rights and minority businesses' likelihood of receiving a loan.
..."We've been studied enough," Tlaib said before adding that it's "Too late" when Dillingham suggested the change she's requesting could possibly be made for the 2030 census.
