Census News Headlines

The Trump Administration attempted to shorten the census by 30 days, meaning that our communities, particularly those most at risk of being undercounted, run the risk of losing out on the representation and funding they deserve. A court order has extended the census to October 31, but an appeal could result in the census ending sooner. It is critical that New Yorkers complete their census as soon as possible to avoid an incomplete count. Remind your family, friends, and neighbors to complete their census at my2020census.gov or by calling 844-330-2020.

In addition, U.S. Census Bureau enumerators will begin going door-to-door to the homes of New Yorkers who have not yet completed the census. While census takers are well-trained to help you complete the census, you can avoid a knock at your door by simply going to my2020census.gov and filling out the census in just a few minutes. Fill out the census now before it’s too late. See our Frequently Asked Questions: Census Takers webpage for more details.
