Join the National League of Cities (NLC), the U.S. Conference of Mayors (USCM), and the International City-County Management Association (ICMA) for a joint webinar reviewing the Census Bureau’s proposed changes to the 2030 decennial census.
The proposed rule would change how the decennial census determines who is counted for apportionment, redefine “usual residence,” expand the Bureau’s use of administrative records and restrict which demographic questions can appear on the census form. Together, these changes could affect your community’s population count, congressional apportionment, redistricting, and eligibility for state and federal funding tied to census data.
This webinar will walk through the key provisions of the proposed rule, explain the timeline and comment process, and outline what local officials should be watching for as the rule moves forward. Since recording the webinar, the Census Bureau has extended the comment period deadline to November 2nd, 2026.
