OWL ALERT Sept 13, 2020
Funds for Your City and State Depend on U.S. Census
SITUATION: The Republican Senate has cut short the time (by an entire month) allotted for the census to be taken. Why?? Local governments and advocacy groups have filed lawsuits against the Trump administration arguing that an inaccurate count will cost some communities political representation and millions of federal dollars. The Census count influences school funding, senior housing, public transit, etc. https://2020census.gov/en/community-impact.html
ACTION: BE COUNTED TO GET WHAT YOU DESERVE FOR YOUR CITY and STATE https://www.2020census.gov/ or 844-330-2020. Hurry! Census information gathering currently ends SEPTEMBER 30.
ALERT YOUR SENATORS to urge an extension of the deadline back to the original October 31 date and please write and call Dr. Steven Dillingham, Director of the Census Bureau, 4600 Silver Hill Rd, WDC 20233 or 800-923-8292 (Cust. Service) M -F 8 a.m.-5 p.m. EDT
