“Taking the Census is a slam dunk.” Wesley Matthews is Asking YOU to Complete the 2020 Census Today
The deadline has changed. Don’t miss the October 15th deadline – Complete the Census today
Here’s why you should complete the Census: A successful count in the 2020 Census is critical to ensure that every kid, every family, and every community receives the appropriate share of more than $675 billion a year in federal funds to support our communities. These federal funds are divided between all 50 states, Washington, DC, and U.S. Territories, based on the total count of people living in each of those areas. This funding supports important programs for our families, including: childcare, food assistance, health insurance, transportation, special education, temporary assistance to families in need, and keeping children safe in foster care.
Your Census response is safe and secure: The Census Bureau is not allowed to share anyone’s private or personal information. This is the law. Title 13 of the U.S. Code of Law says that it is illegal for the Census Bureau to share census information with any government agency or court.
Please make sure you participate in the 2020 Census. It is necessary for our communities in Wisconsin to thrive. It is important that we have an accurate count of all kids in Wisconsin, for their future and for the future of the State of Wisconsin.
