Nearly 25% of Howard County residents have NOT yet taken their Census. We lose nearly $18,000 in federal funding for every person who doesn’t complete the Census. That's funding for libraries, schools, hospitals, roads, and other public works. The deadline for completing the census is Sept. 30 - get started on yours today at my2020census.gov! #HoCoCounts
