How much do you think each person counted in the upcoming census will be worth to Montana in Federal funding?
Why the Census matters.
Power
The decennial census is used to apportion seats in the U.S. House of Representatives among the states, as mandated by the U.S. Constitution. Census data are used to define legislature districts, school district assignment areas and other important functional areas of government.
Funding
Census data directly affect how more than $589 billion per year in federal funding is allocated to tribal, state, and local government programs and services for neighborhood improvements, public health, education, transportation and much more. That’s more than $5 trillion over a 10-year period. Spending just a few minutes to fill out your census form will help ensure your community gets its fair share of federal and state funding.
What’s your guess?
$200
$400
$567
$700
