Schatz, Murkowski demand Census Bureau comply with court ruling, continue counting until Oct. 31
Senator Brian Schatz
U.S. Senators Brian Schatz, D-Hawai'i, and Lisa Murkowski, R-Alaska, urged the Census Bureau to reverse its decision to end the self-response period and field data collection for the 2020 Census on Oct. 5 and instead allow operations to continue until Oct. 31. This bipartisan effort follows the Census Bureau's decision to ignore a recent federal court ruling, which found that ending the counting operations early would result in a serious undercount.
