Commerce Secretary Gary Locke is urging census volunteers to reach out to hard-to-count communities, where Hispanic and Asian immigrants often mistake the workers as law enforcement officials or tax collectors.
In his first public appearance as secretary, Locke spoke at a training conference Monday held by the Census Bureau for partnership groups ranging from AFL-CIO to the NAACP and Vote Latino.
He stressed that personal information submitted on the census form will be kept absolutely confidential.

Maybe some freepers can post some flyers I and others can print and hand out telling people that the census takers ARE tax collectors, ICE agents, etc.
“He stressed that personal information submitted on the census form will be kept absolutely confidential.”
LOL.
I guess the files will be kept secret, like the Clintons kept those files secret...or how Dopey-Changey worked with a group that fixed elections, ACORN.
Or, La Raza, that fights for the rights of lawbreakers...
More Democratic “truth”.

A lawyer involved with legal action against Association of Community Organizations for Reform Now (ACORN) told a House Judiciary subcommittee on March 19 The New York Times had killed a story in October that would have shown a close link between ACORN, Project Vote and the Obama campaign because it would have been a “a game changer
You know that they will count the illegals as citizens...
We’ll learn that the population of Detroit is 92,750,000.
Yep, ranging from anarchists to communists.
The List, ping
Conservative retirees need to volunteer for the census, en massse.
They are trying to say MORE people live in the areas in order to get more represenation. Remember in the 2000 Census, Michigan lost a represenative, GA gained one, etc. This is by far worse than gerrymandering.
So ACORN will know exactly who to arm twist.
i checked with the hiring office for the Census in Las Vegas and they are pretty much just looking for black and hispanics - according to their own employees.
We’ll be lucky if they only count them once
ROFL
The Democrat voterbase are those hiding from the law and consists of illegal immigrants, sex deviates, dead people, welfare cheats, convicted felons.....did I miss anyone?
Having worked previously for the Census for quite some time, I've always been baffled by this claim.
I worked in a lot of different areas, and I always found Hispanics (who were pretty obviously mostly illegal immigrants, though legal status isn't asked in the interview; they'd always volunteer that they had a "Green card") extremely cooperative. Same mostly goes for lower-class black areas. At NO time was I ever mistaken for law enforcement or a tax collector.
By FAR the most hostility and lack of cooperation I saw towards the Census was in wealthy white neighborhoods in Republican areas.
“He stressed that personal information submitted on the census form will be kept absolutely confidential.””
At the 2000 census, I got a multipage form that I was “required to fill out by government order”, and I filled in my name- age- and that there was only one person in this residence.
All the other questions bout how far I commuted to work, how many bathrooms I had in the house, how many vehicles I owned, how far I drove each year, and lots of other “information” was not filled in.
I wrote “N O Y D B” None of your damn business on each and every page.
Never got any follow-up.
All that extra information was not needed to set districts for the House of Representatives.
