2020 Census

 Help Us Boost Iowa's Census   Participation 

 I cannot stress enough how important census   participation is to the future of our state. We need all   942 cities and 99 counties to compete. For every   Iowan who is not counted, the state stands to lose   $17,000 over the next ten years.

 The census impacts 8.7 billion dollars in federal funding for Iowa, to help with roads, housing, education, agriculture, health care and more. We need your help. Encourage friends, family, neighbors and coworkers to take a few minutes and complete the Census at My2020Census.gov
 
Thank you for the honor of serving as your Secretary of State. 
Sincerely,

Paul Pate
Iowa Secretary of State
