4/1/10 - National News

Don't Forget!



Today is the deadline to do something very important...send in your US Census Form.

What is the census?  First, read this to find out.  

Does the 2010 Census asks lots of intrusive, personal questions? Is it true that the Census Bureau has no constitutional authority to ask us these things?  Lots of claims have been flying around the internet about the Census.  Check out this video below from factcheck.org for the real scoop:


After watching the video, answer the following questions in the comment section:


1.  What is the main purpose of the census?
2.  Why should every American household fill out a census form?

  1. people should fill these forms out, it only takes about 5-10 minutes and they help the congress. These forms help them figure out how many seats can be filled in the congress. Also, they can improve our community, schools, and town groups.

  2. The main purpose of the census is to determine the number of seats in the house. You should fill it out so you dont get fined and because it's very impotant.
