Today is a good day to fill out the census. You can help determine Louisiana’s share of billions of federal dollars for our hospitals, schools, roads and other public services. If you’ve already participated in the 2020 Census, be sure to encourage your family and friends to do so as well. It is important that all of Louisiana is counted in this year’s census. If you haven’t done so already, visit https://buff.ly/3iRHl6u and fill yours out today!
