As the former ranking member of the Subcommittee on Federalism and the Census, I fought to ensure that the 2000 Census would be fair and accurate. The importance of accurate data cannot be minimized. Decennial census data is used to ensure fair representation and the fair distribution of federal funds. Now as a member of the Committee of Jurisdiction, I will continue my efforts for the 2010 Census and fight to ensure that every citizen is counted.
