The information to fill the cencus form is just your name ,birthday ,date of birth and names and birthdays of your children and spouse.In exchange for everyone on the form $3000 will be sent to your community federal money for housing ,education, transportation,school busing , etc

you should not believe the right wing media nonsense about ACORN and the census. It was not true. You are entitled to your own opinions, not your own facts.

To #6 et al

Doesn’t anyone remember that ACORN was moving intop the White House to supervise the census? Doesn’t anyone realize that the White House took over the census administration for the 1st time in history?
Well ACORN has been neutralized. The Wite House – well that is a different matter.

No thank you. Loy Miduvshach (grants) vloy meyuktzach (R”L).

I did not send my information on a short track to the White House.

they first need to seek a real job then learn to speak, read and then write. We will discuss it then (in about 15-20 years)

Ridiculous

The census helps the state, by knowing how many ppl live in the state that’s how many representatives we have in the house!

All you have to do BY LAW is fill out the number of people who live in your house. So don’t be put off by all the other questions, which are invasive in my opinion.

I did that & so far, I haven’t been harassed by the census people for not filling it out ” properly” .

Kudos to Senator Eric Adams office and his staff, including Reuven Lipkind, who spent hours in front of 770 making sure that our community signed up,

Here is something to think about.
