Ron Jarmin, the Deputy Director and Chief Operating Officer of the U.S. Census Bureau, answers your questions about the 2020 Census – the count of everyone living in the United States. Ron started his career at the Census Bureau in 1992, so he knows a thing or two about how the census works and why it is so IMPORTANT that everyone respond to the census next year. The 2020 Census is Easy, Safe, and Important. It's easy because you can respond online, by phone, or by mail, and the census asks simple questions. It's safe because Census Bureau employees take an oath for life to protect your data and we have strong precautions in place to keep your responses safe from cyber threats. And it's important because the census affects your voice in government, how much funding your community receives and how your community plans for the future.

Update at 5:03pm ET: Thanks for all your questions! I hope my answers were illuminating :) Follow along on our social media accounts and get involved! Happy holidays!

PS. Don't forget 2020census.gov/jobs to join our team.

PPS. Go Ducks!

It's Saturday, folks. Let's all kick back with a cup of coffee and share some cartoons!

Feel free to share political cartoons in this thread. Besides our usual civility policy, there are three rules to follow:

Every top-level comment must contain a political cartoon. This means no text-only top-level comments.
It must be an original cartoon. This means no photographs, no edited cartoons, no memes and no image macros. OC is allowed, as is animation.
Each top-level comment should only have a maximum of 3 cartoons.

That's all. Enjoy your holiday weekend!
