The addition of the citizenship question to the 2020 census would reduce the number of Latinos counted by 6,000,000 people (12%) and result in 'substantial undercounts in states with large immigrant populations,' according to a group of researchers.
, the addition of the citizenship question would reduce the number of Latinos counted by 6 million people and result in"substantial undercounts in states with large immigrant populations." According to a survey by Matt Barreto, political scientist at the University of California, Los Angeles, only 35 percent of immigrants and 31 percent of Hispanics said they would trust the Trump administration to protect citizenship information.
CHIRLA is building on this outreach as it kicks off its"Contamos Contigo" campaign. Part of the strategy, Colin says, is to prevent the need for census workers to come to immigrant households by encouraging immigrants to complete the census online or over the phone. CHIRLA Executive Director Angelica Salas said that with almost half of the workers in California being an immigrant or the children of immigrants, the importance of the census for California is profound.
Diana Crofts-Pelayo, communications chief of CCCC, says that the state has committed more than 100 million dollars for the effort, with another 54 million dollars being discussed in the Legislature to tackle"undercount" issues.
