WASHINGTON, D.C. - You may have gotten one in the mail or a knock on the door: for months, the Census Bureau has counted every person living in the United States.Even the homeless in a rural state like Montana get counted."In the last month, we finished and submitted a census for 70 homeless people," said Carley Tuss, with St. Vincent de Paul homeless services in Great Falls, Montana.This year, though, an accurate census count could be in jeopardy."The census is not a dry statistical exercise," said Thomas Wolf of the Brennan Center for Justice, pushing in court for an accurate census count.Because of the coronavirus, the Census Bureau extended the deadline for in-person counting, setting it for the end of October. Then, things changed."Suddenly, then, on August 3, the Commerce Department and the Census Bureau abruptly and without explanation said that they were going to go back to the original timeline," Wolf said.The Census Bureau now plans to stop counting at the end of September, a full month earlier than planned.What's more, the deadline for processing those tens of millions of census responses, set for the spring of next year, got pushed up to the end of this year.However, a federal judge temporarily halted the plan, until there can be a court hearing later this month."If you cut the time short, you don't have enough time to collect the data. You don't have enough time to process the data," Wolf said, "and then you end up with real problems."Those problems could include under-counting communities of color, like African Americans, Hispanics, and Native Americans.In response to our questions, the Census Bureau referred us to a statement from their director, Steven Dillingham, which says, in part, "We are taking steps and adapting our operations to make sure everyone is counted while keeping everyone safe."Census maps, which are updated continuously, show that it can be a struggle in some states.Montana, Arizona, Alabama, Georgia, and New Mexico rank at the bottom of the list, with only about three-quarters of households responding.That can end up costing those states billions of dollars for highways, food stamps, school programs, and student loans.For example, Florida had one of the country's worst response rates during the 2010 census, and it cost the state tens of billions in federal dollars."When we don't participate, the money goes elsewhere," said Jonathan Evans, the city manager of Riviera Beach, Florida.In the meantime, multiple federal court cases are challenging – among other things-- the census schedule and the Trump administration's effort to exclude undocumented migrants from the count.Whether those cases are resolved before the census count ends remains to be seen. 2738

WASHINGTON, D.C. – Congressional leaders in both chambers have agreed on a COVID-19 relief package that would provide nearly 0 billion in aid.The Senate and House are expected to vote on and approve the bill Monday, sending it to President Donald Trump’s desk for approval.A majority of the aid will be repurposed from money that was already set aside for the CARES Act, the relief bill passed in March. Senate Majority Leader Mitch McConnell says the repurposed funds amount to over 0 billion.The long-awaited aid comes at a time when many Americans are struggling to make ends meet and U.S. hospitals are combating the ongoing surge in coronavirus cases.The deal covers a large swath of issues related to the pandemic and it also includes a .4 trillion government-wide funding plan that would keep the government open through September.Below is a breakdown on what’s included in the bill, based on reporting and statements from congressional leadership.Another round of stimulus checksThe massive bill includes another round of direct payments for qualifying Americans. But unlike the CARES Act, which provided ,200 to many, this bill will provide most adults with 0. Families will also receive another 0 per child.As was the case in the last round of stimulus checks, the size of the direct payments will decrease for those who earned more than ,000 in the 2019 tax year and those who made ,000 or more won’t receive money.Enhanced unemployment insurance benefitsThe bill will stop the sudden expiration of unemployment insurance benefits for millions and add a 0 per week enhancement for Americans who are out of work.Support for businessesThe agreement includes more than 4 billion for first and second forgivable Paycheck Protection Program (PPP) loans, expanded PPP eligibility for nonprofits and local media, and PPP modifications to better serve small businesses, nonprofits and independent restaurants.About billion is dedicated to funding for live venues, independent movie theaters, and cultural institutions.Around billion is also included for targeted grants through the Economic Injury Disaster Loans program, which leaders say are critical for many small businesses to stay open.The agreement also provides a tax credit to support employers offering paid sick leave.Education and child careThe agreement provides billion in funding for colleges and schools, as well as billion for child care assistance to help get parents back to work and keep child care providers open.Rental assistanceAbout billion was secured for rental assistance for families who are struggling to stay in their homes.The agreement also extends the eviction moratorium until Jan. 31. It was set to expire at the end of the year. The Washington Post reports that President-elect Biden could extend the deadline further once he's in office.Vaccine distributionNow that two different COVID-19 vaccines have been issued emergency use authorization by the Food and Drug Administration (FDA), Congress is allocating funds to distribute doses. The Post and CNBC report the bill would provide billion for distribution efforts and billion to assist states with coronavirus testing.A total of billion was also secured for GAVI, the international vaccine alliance.“The package provides billions in urgently need funds to accelerate the free and equitable distribution of safe vaccines to as many Americans as possible as soon as possible, to implement a strong national testing and tracing strategy with billions reserved specifically for combating the disparities facing communities of color, and to support our heroic health care workers and providers,” said Speaker of the House Nancy Pelosi and Senate Minority Leader Chuck Schumer in a joint statement.Nutrition assistanceAbout billion was secured for SNAP and child nutrition benefits to help relieve the ongoing hunger crisis that leadership says has left up to 17 million children food insecure.Transportation aidThe bill will reportedly provide billion for the nation’s transportation industry, with at least billion for airline payroll assistance, billion for transit systems and billion for highways. 4225

WASHINGTON, D.C. — It’s easily one of the most visible of the celestial bodies: the moon. Next year, the journey to get humans back there will get underway again.“Ultimately, it fulfills our need to explore,” said Dr. Kjell Lindgren, a NASA astronaut, who is one of the 18 recently chosen for NASA’s Artemis program.Artemis aims to get humans, including the first woman, to the lunar surface by 2024. Humans have not been back to the moon since the Apollo 17 mission back in 1972.“All of us in the astronaut office are, in one way or another, influenced by those iconic images of our Apollo astronauts exploring the moon,” Dr. Lindgren said.Returning to the moon is seen as a necessary stepping-stone to getting humans to Mars in the 2030s. The Artemis team will be working on lunar-related projects, both in orbit and on the surface of the moon, that can eventually be applied to a future Martian mission.“The moon offers a wealth of scientific discovery still,” Dr. Lindgren said. “It also offers a wealth of operational discovery helping us to refine the procedures the equipment and the skills that are needed to be able to land, to explore successfully on a rocky surface and then to come back to the earth.”The missions also have the potential to create technological advancements for everyone on Earth.“The whole world benefits from those things and the benefits from Apollo are innumerable. You know, from the computers, the miniaturization of computers and on, you can count all those,” he said. “That was really a turning point in history for technology.”NASA’s Artemis program hopes to eventually create a permanent human presence on the moon’s surface, similar to the current full-time human presence on the International Space Station, and Dr. Lindgren could be among them.“It's such a privilege to be a part of this,” he said.The new lunar program was named “Artemis,” after the Greek goddess, who was the twin sister of Apollo. 1950

WASHINGTON, D.C. – Hispanics make up the largest emerging ethnic group in the United States and one that the outcome of this year’s elections may hinge on.“Eight out of every 10 Latinos in our country are United States citizens. The other thing that is important to know is that, during presidential elections, eight out of 10 Latinos, who are registered to vote, vote.”Clarissa Martinez is with UnidosUS, the largest Latino civil rights organization in the country. UnidosUS is now working on voter registration outreach, in the run up to the 2020 election.“We have a lot eligible, but unregistered, voters,” Martinez said.According to the Pew Research Center, a record 32 million Hispanics will be eligible to vote in the 2020 election, many of them in valuable swing states.Hispanics make up about 20% of eligible voters in Arizona and Florida, nearly a third of the potential electorate in California and Texas, and more than 40% of eligible voters in New Mexico.“Basically, in pure numbers, [it] means that, if they were a solid bloc, they would really make a significant difference,” said Dr. Eduardo Gamarra, a political science professor at Florida International University.Yet, he adds – Hispanics are not a solid voting bloc.For example – in past elections – Cuban Americans tended to vote Republican, while Mexican Americans favored Democrats, with Puerto Ricans sometimes split between the two parties.“It is a very diverse community,” Dr. Gamarra said. “It's national origin, but it's also income. It's also race, to a certain extent, right? And Latino women, in some measure, in some places, vote different than Latino men.”That means campaigns may need to tailor their messages, depending on which part of the Hispanic electorate they’re trying to reach.It’s outreach that Clarissa Martinez argues is often missing when it comes to Hispanic voters.“In the last two presidential elections, for example, 60% of Latino voters who were highly likely to vote said that they had not heard from campaigns or candidates – which, frankly, is political malpractice,” she said.However, she says it can be rectified with a simple political playbook.“Candidates matter, their positions matter,” she said, “and meaningful outreach is essential.” 2254
