Which of the following statements, do you think, can be a valid reason of the objection raised by some members of the Congress, against some of the questions in the form?

The 2000 census form asked 53 detailed questions, such as: "Do you have complete plumbing facilities in this house, apartment, or mobile home; hot and cold piped water, a flush toilet, and bathtub or shower?" The form also asked the questions about income (in dollars, broken down by source) and about whether any "physical, mental, or emotional condition causes difficulty in learning, remembering, or concentrating." Some members of Congress objected to these questions, even though Congress had approved them.
