    The Honorable Mitch McConnell The Honorable Chuck Schumer

    Majority Leader Minority Leader

    United States Senate United States Senate

    Washington, DC 20510 Washington, DC 20510

    Dear Senators McConnell and Schumer,

    We, the undersigned census stakeholders, are writing to urge you to include imperative language in

    the next Senate COVID relief package that would extend the statutory reporting deadlines for the

    2020 Census by four months.

    As you know, the COVID-19 pandemic has affected many facets of American life, including the

    2020 Census. Earlier this year, the pandemic compelled the U.S. Census Bureau to suspend field

    activities and postpone key operations, including the critical Non-Response Follow Up (NRFU)

    phase in which census takers visit more than 30 percent of households that have not responded on

    their own, to collect information in person. Only weeks ago, senior expert career Census Bureau

    staff said unequivocally that they could not responsibly finish their work in time to complete the

    NRFU operation and compile, analyze, and disseminate apportionment data by the statutorily

    required December 31, 2020 deadline. Accordingly, the Secretary of Commerce wisely requested

    that Congress extend the reporting deadlines for apportionment and redistricting data, so that the

    Census Bureau could complete in-person visits and other special counting operations for the non-

    household population (including people experiencing homelessness; people living in transitory

    locations such as RV parks and motels; and people living in group facilities such as nursing homes

    and college dorms) and deliver reliable apportionment and redistricting data to the Congress and

    states. Now the administration is suggesting that this painstaking work can be done by the legally

    required deadlines.

    Unfortunately, a rushed census will harm every state. Currently, there are low response areas in

    every part of the country, in every state, in every city. If remaining counting operations are not

    done well, communities most in need of resources to improve quality of life and standards of living

    will get the short end of the stick for the next decade.

    The decision to reverse course on the proposed extension was reportedly hastily developed at the

    White House and not by career professionals at the Census Bureau whose job it is to plan and

    execute a full, fair, and accurate count. A decision of this magnitude must not be politically

    motivated. It must be carried out to ensure that the decennial census is conducted in an impartial,

    exact manner. Likewise, Congress has a constitutional responsibility to ensure that the enumeration

    is conducted responsibly and delivers reliable data about our nation’s changing socioeconomic and

    demographic characteristics. Too much is at stake--the undercount of vulnerable populations such

    as young children, people in low-income communities (rural and urban), immigrants, American

    Indians and others; congressional representation; and the annual allocation of $1.5 trillion in

    federal funding to states and localities.

    It is vital that we protect the 2020 Census from political interference. The House of

    Representatives has already approved an extension of the 2020 Census operations as part of its

    most recent COVID relief package. We urge the Senate to stay the course by agreeing to an

    extension provision in its next COVID relief package, so that the Census Bureau is not forced to

    rush remaining enumeration operations and critical data review, processing, and tabulation

    activities.

    Thank you for your consideration of this request and for supporting the full and fair 2020 Census

    we all deserve and the Constitution requires.

    Sincerely,
