Today April 1st marks “One Year Out” campaign for the Census 2020.

We support the Census of 2020 and you should too! Below are some important reasons why…
• Census data guides local decision-makers and important community planning. 
• Census data is used to determine locations for businesses, community centers, schools, churches, hospitals, new housing developments and a host of other community facilities to improve areas.
• Census data results determine how many seats your state gets in Congress to echo your voice on the Hill, as well as the boundaries for local and state legislative and congressional district. 
• The Bureau of the Census protects their answers. It’s against the law to publicly release the responses in any way that could identify anyone. By law the Bureau cannot share any information with anyone including immigration and customs enforcement. All information is turned into statistics.
