Fighting Rumors With Facts
Hi Friend, 

In the time of COVID-19, I sincerely hope you and your family are safe &
healthy! Recently, you might have seen posts on social media linking the
Census to the stimulus package proposed by the Senate. The posts allege
that a stimulus check was contingent upon you filling out your 2020
Census.

This is completely FALSE. The 2020 Census has nothing to do with the
proposed stimulus check. Stimulus checks are designed to provide immediate
financial help to Americans suffering from economic hardship due to major
economic changes. 

In fact, the Census is 100% confidential. The individual responses and
personal data are kept private and not released to any other state or
federal agencies for at least 72 years. The Census Bureau has [ [link removed] ]debunked
this rumor, media outlets have spoken out, and now organizations are
joining the fight to combat inaccurate and misleading information. 

Census data determines the funding for much-needed resources like the
Supplemental Nutrition Assistance Program (SNAP), Temporary Assistance for
Needy Families (TANF), and Women Infants and Children (WIC).  All of these
programs are helping people who are laid off due to COVID19. 

If you have not filled out the [ [link removed] ]Census yet, now is a great time to do
it! Remember, filling out the Census helps your community by providing an
accurate count of ALL Nevadans. Without an accurate count, we do not get
the necessary funding for programs that we desperately need.

Be safe & well
