AUSTIN - Texas Secretary of State Ruth Hughs today convened a roundtable discussion of state agencies to coordinate efforts with the U.S. Census Bureau (USCB) to achieve an accurate count of all Texans in the upcoming 2020 Census. The Secretary was joined by USCB Director Dr. Steven Dillingham, Texas State Demographer Dr. Lloyd Potter, as well as representatives from various state agencies and the Texas Legislature.
"The census plays a major role in determining the distribution of federal funds to the Lone Star State in areas such as healthcare, education, agriculture, and infrastructure and housing, as well as determining the size of our congressional delegation," said Secretary Hughs. "That's why it's imperative that we work collaboratively towards finding ways that our state's agencies can help to ensure that we count all Texans in the upcoming census."
