An open letter to the U.S. Congress

extend the census

1 so far! Help us get to 5 signers!

I am a member of Indivisible CA33. I'm writing today because I’m very concerned about the lack of adequate time to complete the 2020 Census. I ask that you support legislation that grants the US Census Bureau an additional 4 months to collect data, and for an extension to the deadline by which the bureau must submit the information to the White House. With 37% of US households yet to respond, it is clear more time is needed for an accurate count. Thank you for your time and attention.
