Fixing the US statistical infrastructure.
Summary: Imagine trying to build a house without a tape measure. That's what it's like running a country without good data! Government statistics help businesses grow, leaders make rules, and families plan for the future. But right now, the US data system is old and needs a major update. To make things worse, the government is cutting staff and ending important health and school data programs. Even with these messy changes, we might have a chance to finally step up and modernize our national data system so it works for everyone.
