Affected by the epidemic
The time of this census has moved backwards as a whole
So the census is not over yet
The 10-year 2020 census is just beginning
Do you think it has nothing to do with you?
Then you are wrong!
Not just U.S. citizens and green cards
International students, H1B, visiting relatives are actually involved
Do you think it's useless to participate?
Then you are wrong again!
Every time the census Chinese and Asians because of the low number of participants
Lost a lot of government financial subsidies that originally belonged to us
And these are moving fingers
Take 5 minutes to fill out the census form
The rights that can be won
U.S. Constitutional requirements
美国Every 10 yearsOnceCensus
This year happens to be the "decade"
The census will count everyone in the United States
Statistics based on one household
It ’s important to note that everyone makes sure to be counted only once
In other words, one person only counts under one household
Students should be counted in the school dormitory / off-campus apartment
Only in this way can we get more education / medical resources for the university city
2020/4/1Everyone staying in the United States
note! International students and people holding work visas are counted!
Newborn babies in the family are also counted
If you are a person who has no place to stay and drifts around
Then count according to the place where you floated on April 4st
Very important! ! !
The number of people in the census determines a city and a community
Even the resource allocation of the small transparent ethnic group in the next 10 years
This free opportunity
Don't blame it!
-
Decide on the seats of the US states in the House of Representatives, divide the voting area, and let all ethnic groups have equal voice
-
Determine how more than $ 6750 billion in federal funds are distributed and used in the community each year
-
As the research data of lawmakers, entrepreneurs and other industries, promote the better development of society
-
The federal government formulates more subsidies based on census data, including education, medical care, mental health, infrastructure of public facilities, etc.
If these points are too abstract
So give a real point 🌰
In the census 10 years ago
Los Angeles is near8 million peopleNot counted
Lead to the city$ 2 million lessFederal appropriation
And as a university in the city
Naturally, it is also affected in obtaining more educational resources
From a national perspective, there are about1600 million peopleDid not participate in the census
According to the US Census Bureau
1% increaseOf people participating in the census
Taxpayers can save together in one year$ 8500 million
This is why the Census Bureau
Even the Super Bowl will advertise at the heft of money
The total number of Asian Americans in 2017 was approximately 2200 million
Mainly lives in California, New York, and Washington State
One in five Asians do not understand the census
And there are many low-income Asians
Even groups who don't understand English
This will lead to the issue of disappearance in the future
These people will be nowhere to be found
Insufficient statistics will affect the amount of government subsidies
Including education, health, nutrition plan, medical insurance, etc.
For many low-income Asians
Are the guarantee of survival
For international students
Survival may not be a problem
But educational resources are closely related to international students
According to the census data
Will affect the educational benefits of bilingual courses, scholarships, meals, etc.
