Census
2010: time for the 23rd Census of the United States!
Soon you will be receiving a Census form in the mail. It is vitally important to our District, and the wider community in which we live, to understand how every citizen's cooperation in this effort helps us all.
Census data are used to determine the number of representatives our state receives in the U.S. Congress, as well as our county's representation in the state legislature. Government agencies use the data to make funding decisions for more than $300 billion each year, including:
The information is collected in two ways: by a questionnaire that is sent to every home, and through confidentiality-bound census workers who travel door to door. Some people worry that the information they provide could be used against them. However, census information is completely confidential. It is never shared with other government agencies, including the IRS, any office of immigration, or the FBI. In fact, revealing census data is a federal offense. No one will know your name, who is staying with you, whether or not you are a citizen, or any personal details about your life.
If you have any questions about the Census, or if you haven't received a Census form, please contact State Senator Betty Little. Her office can provide you with a wealth of information relating to the Census, and much, much else.;
Thank you,
MCS Administration
