Administration Seeks Delay In Census Deadlines

Politico: “The Trump administration is moving to delay some deadlines for the 2020 census due to coronavirus, including delivering data to states for congressional redistricting. The Census Bureau is requesting Congress allow a 120-day delay on some data-reporting deadlines, according to a joint statement Monday by Commerce Secretary Wilbur Ross and Census Bureau Director Steven Dillingham. The delay would accommodate social distancing guidelines for workers to prevent the spread of the disease.”
