Emergency Funding for the 2010 Census
The decennial census is the premier source of demographic and economic data on every facet of
our nation’s population and communities. It provides data used by federal and state agencies to
determine the allocation of hundreds of billions of dollars in government funding and by the
private sector to inform key investment and other business decisions. Further, census population
numbers are used to apportion seats in Congress, influencing the foundation of our democracy.
