Information about the 2020 Census is now being mailed out to every household in America. The U.S. Constitution mandates that every person living in the United States be counted every ten years. Despite this, there are many people who have never participated in a Census. The Independence Center’s own Daniel Ratcliff, Benefits Coordinator, is one of those people. But in the video below, he shares with us why he will be participating in the Census for the very first time.
Visit our U.S. Census page for more information on the Census and why completing it is important to people who receive benefits like Medicare, Medicaid, and the Supplemental Nutrition Assistance Program.
