The Richardson Chamber of Commerce Partners with 2010 U. S. Census Bureau

The Richardson Chamber has entered into a Business Partnership agreement with the U. S. Census Bureau.  In 2010, the U. S. Census Bureau will issue a call to action for every resident of our nation:  “Be Counted”.  Beginning in February, 2010, census questionnaires will be mailed or delivered to all U. S. households.  The official “Census Day” is April 1, 2010. After that date, census takers will visit households that did not return a questionnaire by mail.  Please fulfill a valuable civic duty by supporting the 2010 Census; complete and mail your census questionnaire.  Encourage your neighbors, friends and co-workers to do the same. 

The 2010 Census is important to you and your community.  Distribution of more than $300 billion annual government funding for critical community services and your voice in Congress is determined by census results.

(A.)  All U. S. Citizens living in the U. S. only  
(B.)  All U. S. Citizens living in the U. S. and abroad 
(C.)  All U. S. residents – citizens and non-citizens
(D.)  All adults residents – citizens and non-citizens

Please support the 2010 U. S. Census and complete the questionnaire in the Spring of 2010 and return it promptly so you will be counted.  “It’s in Our Hands”.

Answer to Census Trivia Question:  ( C ) “All U. S. residents must be counted – people of all races and ethnic groups, both citizens and non-citizens” are counted in the census. (Source U.S. Dept. of Commerce)
