R. 47.5, the Court has determined that this opinion should not be published and is not precedent except under the limited circumstances set forth in 5TH CIR. R. 47.5.4. constitutionality of the forms used to conduct the decennial census for the year 2000. We review de novo the summary judgment of the district court. Specifically, appellants claimed that questions on their census forms asking them to identify their race and ethnicity violate the First Amendment of the U.S. Constitution and that those questions and others also contained in the census violate the Equal Protection provision of the Fifth Amendment. In addition, appellant Van Fleet claimed that the long form questionnaire sent to him constituted another violation of the Fourth and Fifth Amendments. After careful review of the record and briefs on appeal and giving due consideration to the oral argument presented upon submission, we find no error in the district court's judgment nor in its stated reasons for its judgment. No error having been shown, the judgment of the district court is affirmed in all things. AFFIRMED 2
