 esentation about the U.S. Census. The 2020 census is of significant import
 ance to our Chamber businesses. In addition to primarily determining our r
 epresentation in Congress\, the data obtained from the 2020 Census can ass
 ist Chamber members with important business decisions. For example\, censu
 s data can assist in projections of growth or decline\, therefore informin
 g decisions on locating or relocating operations. Census data can enhance 
 hiring practices by identifying where potential employees are located. The
  data can also provide information on a company’s customer base\, includ
 ing income\, household size and homeownership status. Last but not least\,
  2020 Census data will primarily determine how more than $675 billion in f
 ederal monies are distributed annually to states\, counties\, municipaliti
 es and local businesses in the form of grants and programs for local schoo
 ls\, hospitals\, emergency services\, transportation\, housing and a host 
 of other vital services that sustain and enhance the community\, and by ex
 tension\, the business environment. Our speaker for this session will be M
