Policy Center

On behalf of The Census Project (www.thecensusproject.org), a broad-based coalition of
business, civic, human services, state and local government, and academic groups committed to
supporting the U.S. Census Bureau’s mission to produce full, fair, complete, and accurate data,
including data from the 2020 Census and American Community Survey (ACS), we are writing to
express support for providing the agency with robust funding in Fiscal Year (FY) 2022.
Specifically, as you consider the FY 2022 Commerce, Justice, Science (CJS) Appropriations
bill, we urge your subcommittees to recommend that the Census Bureau receive $2 billion,
a funding level that represents a $335 million increase over the agency’s FY 2021 total
funding level of $1.65 billion.
