Hinihikayat ng Mga Grupo ang Mga Pagbabago sa Census upang Tumpak na Bilangin ang Mga Populasyon ng Bilangguan Para sa Muling Pagdistrito

Ngayon, hinikayat ng Common Cause at ng Prison Policy Initiative ang US Census Bureau na baguhin kung paano nito binibilang ang mga populasyon ng bilangguan bawat dekada. Ang paggamit ng Bureau ng differential privacy, ang sinadyang pagbubuhos ng hindi tumpak na impormasyon sa data ng populasyon, ay lumilikha ng mga hindi kinakailangang maling pagbilang sa data na ginagamit ng mga opisyal ng estado at lokal para sa muling pagdistrito.
