If passed, Vitter's amendment would throw a monkey wrench into the U.S. Census, by stopping the 2010 Census dead in its tracks--preventing the questionnaire forms from being mailed next spring and wasting over $7 billion in research, planning, and preparation that has occurred for Census 2010. Lastly, it would completely render useless the one document that is supposed to paint an accurate picture of who we are as a nation.
And that's why SEIU has joined with 11 other partners to launch Don't Wreck the Census.
