The Interfaith Council of Alameda County Joins in to Support the 2020 Census by Helping to Count Immigrants, Seniors and the Unhoused

Sometime in mid-March, households will start receiving information on how to respond to the 2020 Census either online, by phone, or by mail. Why is this important?

1. To make sure Alameda County gets its fair share of funding from the state and from Congress. An undercount would affect local services such as education, health care, transportation, etc.

2. To get appropriate representation in the House and Senate as well as local and statewide offices. An undercount would mean a loss of seats in government

The Interfaith Council of Alameda County is working hard to support the 2020 Census by helping to count populations such as immigrants, seniors, and the unhoused. Enumerator jobs are available at 2020CENSUS.GOV/JOBS or 1-855-JOB-2020.

As we end the celebration of Women’s History Month in Oakland, we endorse Barbara Lee, a woman of demonstrated historical significance. In our opinion, she has the best chance of uniting the city and achieving our needs for affordable housing, public safety, and fiscal accountability.

As a former small business owner, Barbara Lee understands how to apply tools needed to revitalize Oakland’s downtown, uptown, and neighborhood businesses.

Barbara Lee will be able to unify the city around Oakland’s critical budget and financial issues, since she will walk into the mayor’s office with the support of a super majority of seven city council members — enabling her to achieve much-needed consensus on moving Oakland into a successful future.
