Sexual orientation and gender identity – often abbreviated as SOGI – are topics of growing interest to the public, data users, and policymakers. U.S. Census Bureau data on these topics can help measure the diverse lesbian, gay, bisexual, transgender, and queer (LGBTQ+) populations.
The Census Bureau is committed to collecting accurate data on our nation’s people and families.
The Sexual Orientation and Gender Identity (SOGI) Data Action Plan outlines how the Census Bureau is working to use SOGI data to advance equity for lesbian, gay, bisexual, transgender, queer and intersexual (LGBTQI+) individuals. The plan is in response to Section 11(c) Executive Order 14075 on Advancing Equality for Lesbian, Gay, Bisexual, Transgender, Queer and Intersex Individuals and the Federal Evidence Agenda on LGBTQI+ Equity.
