Peters will keep advocating for necessary funding to help ensure an accurate census.
Keep advocating for necessary funding to help ensure an accurate census count.
Occurrences
Evidence
Peters said he was alarmed by the Census Bureau's decision to cut 2030 Census testing, urged the Bureau to reverse course and conduct the 2026 Census Test as planned, and said he had recently secured increased funding and report language for the Census Bureau.
Peters and Raskin asked appropriators for the highest possible FY2025 Census Bureau funding, specifically the Senate-advanced $1.577 billion, arguing it was needed for 2030 Census preparation and accurate counts.
Assessments
Peters appears to have continued advocating for census funding while in office, including asking for the highest possible FY2025 Census Bureau funding and later urging reversal of cuts to 2030 Census testing. That shows clear ongoing effort, but the record here does not show the broader goal of ensuring an accurate census count was fully achieved, so this is partial rather than delivered.
