Answering the 2020 Census call

The nation's estimated 140 million households are receiving their 2020 Census invitations. The forms are easy to fill out and you can submit them online, by mail and by phone. To keep everyone safe, the Census Bureau has suspended all field operations for now. The idea is to take a break to slow the spread of Covid-19. Census takers are now scheduled to visit households that have not responded to the 2020 Census in mid-August, but those plans could change as the bureau continues to monitor the ever-changing situation. Rebecca Briscoe is a Partnership Coordinator for the 2020 Census. She joined AARP State President, Charlene Hunter James, to talk about the census and why it is so important to be counted.
