​​The U.S. Census Bureau conducts a count of every person living in the United States every 10 years, mandated by the U.S. Constitution in Article 1, Section 2. The data collected by the decennial census determines the number of seats Maryland has in the U.S. House of Representatives and is also used to distribute billions in federal funds to its local communities.

In an effort to get people to participate, we’re asking state agencies to promote the 2020 Census on their websites. Below is sample language and approved graphics. If you need assistance with implementing these on your site, put in a request to service.desk@maryland.gov and we’ll assist you.
