There’s a lot going on these days…including the Census! As of June 1, 63% of Richmond households have responded to the Census. This is really good progress, but we still have work to do. In July we will be working with residents to call Iron Triangle households. In the meantime you can help by making sure you get counted and encouraging folks in your network to get counted, too.
What’s the big deal? The Census is about money, power, and data.
Why get a complete count? To ensure accurate political representation in Congress and accurate funding for public services….up to $20,000 per person over 10 years!
Big Picture Message The Census is quick, easy, safe & super important. And WE have the power NOW to shape the future of OUR communities and build a Richmond & California for all by participating in Census 2020. EVERYBODY counts-no matter your age, skin color, residency status, or language spoken.
