Engaging Union Members Ahead of Census 2020
Every 10 years, everyone living in the United States gets counted. It’s called the census. The 2020 Census will provide a snapshot of our nation—our population, where we live, and so much more. More than $700 billion in federal funding is distributed to states and communities each year. These funds support vital community programs such as schools, hospitals, housing, and food assistance. The California labor movement is committed to educating and engaging our members and their families on the Census to ensure a fair and accurate count. Below we have resources aimed at educating, supporting and recruiting both union and non-union members to participate in the 2020 census.
