Census Citizenship Question
Common Cause stopped then-President Trump’s efforts to add a dangerous question on citizenship status to the 2020 Census.
인구조사
The U.S. Census determines who has fair representation in our government and who can access key resources. That is why Common Cause is committed to making sure that everyone is counted.
Every 10 years, the federal government must conduct a census, or a count of everyone living in the U.S. Getting this process right is crucial as the results determine how voting districts are drawn, how funding and resources are allocated to states, and so much more.
We work in the courts, in the legislature, and on the ground to make sure that the census is conducted fairly and independent from politically-motivated agendas.

의회에 알리십시오: 인구 조사를 훼손하려는 시도를 거부하십시오
미국 인구 조사에 시민권 질문을 추가하고 수백만 명의 미국 거주자를 인구 분배에서 제외하면 시민권 여부와 관계없이 수많은 미국인이 인구 조사에 참여하지 않을 것입니다.
인구조사 카운트를 올바르게 하는 것은 우리 정부가 모든 사람을 위해 일하도록 하는 데 중요합니다. 의회는 이 위험한 법안을 거부하고 공정하고 정확한 인구조사 카운트를 보호하는 데 도움을 주어야 합니다.
귀하의 재정 지원은 우리가 다음과 같은 영향을 미치는 데 도움이 됩니다. 권력에 책임을 묻는다 민주주의를 강화합니다.

Redistricting Data Release
On August 12, 2021, the U.S. Census Bureau released redistricting "legacy" data to the states. Although these data will require some time to process, this is the information states and localities need to draw new voting districts that are designed to last for the entire decade. The updated schedule for releasing these data has impacted state redistricting and election timelines. Learn more here.

The Hofeller Files
Evidence obtained by Common Cause confirms how political operatives spent years plotting to rig our democracy with a Census citizenship question. GOP’s chief gerrymandering mastermind Thomas Hofeller laid out a plan to add the citizenship question to the Census. The purpose? Manipulating our Census and redistricting process to be, in Hofeller’s words, “advantageous to Republicans and Non-Hispanic Whites."

Common Cause는 소위 평등 대표법에 대한 "반대" 투표를 촉구합니다.
Common Cause는 오늘 오후에 소위 "Equal Representation Act"(HR 7109)가 본회의에 상정될 예정일 때 모든 미국 하원 의원에게 "아니오"라고 투표할 것을 촉구하고 있습니다. 제안된 법안은 미국 인구조사국이 인구조사에서 10년마다 미국 인구를 세는 헌법상 의무를 이행하는 것을 방해할 것입니다. 또한 이 법안은 헌법을 무시합니다.

Common Cause Urges “Yes” Vote on Bill to Safeguard Census from Political Manipulation & Abuse
Common Cause is urging every member of the U.S. House of Representatives to vote “yes” on the Ensuring a Fair and Accurate Census Act (H.R. 8326) to ensure that future censuses are not subjected to the unprecedented level of malfeasance and politicization that plagued the 2020 Census count. The letter emphasizes the critical importance of conducting a transparent and accurate count of everyone in the United States each decade as our Constitution requires, because that count shapes the nation’s government, public policy, and budgets for a...
