Friends,
In the past few days, without actually apologizing or acknowledging why it was wrong, President Trump has tried to cover for his continued use of the racist, xenophobic term “Chinese virus” in reference to COVID-19.
We need to take a stand against hate whenever and wherever we see it, wherever it comes from. We deserve better from our leaders.
Right now, we each have the opportunity to ensure our voices are heard as we choose our leaders for the next decade and beyond: we can fill out the census. Redistricting based on the 2020 census will shape our elections for ten years. It’s critical that everyone be counted. Despite attempts by the administration, there is no citizenship question designed to undercount vulnerable communities on this year’s census, and all of the information you provide is confidential by law.
Thank you,
Grace
