The Trump administration is planning major changes to the timeline for the 2020 census.
Plans for field operations are now on pause until June 1, while the counting period overall has been extended until Oct. 31. That amounts to a three-month extension of what was the planned deadlines.
Hey if Trump has total authority to tell states to reopen does he also have authority to tell churches to start holding big gatherings too? Askin’ for a friend.
Are there penalties for not answering the census and are they ever enforced? Today we got 2 census envelopes in the mail, both addressed to “Resident”, so we took one and left the other for our downstairs neighbors, along with their other mail (it’s a 2-unit building with a common mail slot so whoever gets to it first takes theirs and leaves the rest on the stairs). Several hours later I noticed that they took all their mail except the census. Knowing them, this means that they don’t intend to answer it, and of course expect us to throw it out (or else it’ll stay there forever). Perhaps it’s not my place but they’re horrible, awful people who treat the building like their own personal garbage can, are loud well past midnight, keep blocking others’ cars, and have a “not my problem” attitude. So, is there a way to report them? I’d be doing my patriotic duty and getting some kicks in too. I never said I was an angel.
