Demand Congress fully fund the Census!

SOME OF THE MAGA GOP ANTICS IN THE HOUSE HAVE PREVIOUSLY 

BEEN POSTED IN THIS FORUM. IT'S TIME TO STOP THEIR ANTICS & 

DO THEIR JOB TO FULLY FUND THE CENSUS FOR AN ACCURATE COUNT!  

The Census has been an important cornerstone of our democracy since 1790, but right now, it's under attack. Congress is considering slashing the Census budget far below what’s needed for an accurate count. On top of that, right-wing extremists are pushing to exclude non-citizens, a move that's not just unconstitutional, but a direct assault on our most vulnerable communities. This isn't just about numbers. It's about power, representation, and the fair allocation of over $2 trillion in annual federal funding. It's about whether communities nationwide get the resources for schools, hospitals, and critical infrastructure. For our diverse communities, the 2030 Census is a historic opportunity. For the first time, it will include more diverse identification options for people from the Middle East, North Africa, and Hispanic backgrounds. We can't let right-wing politicians sabotage our democracy. Join me in demanding Congress increase the Census budget and oppose any cuts. ADD YOUR NAME Defending the Census is defending our democracy. It's ensuring that every community, regardless of size or location, gets fair representation and resources. It's about standing up for an accurate reflection of who we are as a nation, one where every individual counts. An underfunded Census means silenced voices and lost resources for those who need them most. It means less representation, less funding, and less power for our communities. This is our chance to stand up for a fair and accurate Census that truly represents America. Add your name to call on Congress to increase the census budget and oppose any proposals to cut its funding. Together, we can ensure every voice is heard and every person is counted. -Abdelnasser SUPPORT OUR MOVEMENT https://www.rashidforillinois.com/ Rashid for Illinois PO Box 657 Summit, IL 60501 PAID FOR BY RASHID FOR ILLINOIS.
