Arizona Congressman Raul Grijalva has introduced legislation that would require federal surveys to collect data on sexual orientation and gender identity.

The aim of the LGBT Data Inclusion Act is to make it more likely that people in the LGBT community get counted and their concerns are taken into account.

To learn more, we spoke with Kellan Baker, senior fellow at the Center for American Progress, and Madelaine Adelman, associate professor in the School of Social Transformation at ASU
