It is our way, as undocumented and Hispanic\/Latinx individuals, to understand that while some of us can\u2019t ultimately vote, we STILL count.<\/p>\n<p class=\"p3\">I know many who are Hispanic or undocumented who have this fear that this is just another way for the government to attack their families or get their information, which is not the case. The Census helps fund schools, hospitals, improve neighborhoods, ensure public services and, moreover, allows us to know that we count and have the right to be counted.<\/p>\n<p class=\"p3\">As Hispanic\/Latinx community members, we make up about 52 percent of the U.S. population\u2014and, most specifically, 12.8 percent (est. 200,000 Hispanics) of Idaho. So let\u2019s be counted, let\u2019s make sure to use this to exercise political power, and be informed of how you can be CENSUS STRONG.<\/p>\n<p class=\"p5\"><b>NUESTRA VOZ CUENTA<\/b><\/p>\n<p class=\"p3\">Como un recipiente de la DACA, ha sido s\u00faper importante para m\u00ed realizar que llenar el Censo es una forma de poder pol\u00edtico. Es nuestro camino, como individuos indocumentados y Hispanos\/miembros de la comunidad Latinx para entender que mientras algunos de nosotros no podemos votar, TODAV\u00cdA contamos.<\/p>\n<p class=\"p3\">Conozco a muchos que son Hispanos, indocumentados, y\/o miembros de la comunidad Latinx que tienen este miedo que esto sea s\u00f3lo otro modo para el gobierno de atacar a sus familias o conseguir su informaci\u00f3n, que no es el caso. El Censo ayuda a escuelas del fondo, hospitales, mejore vecindades, asegure servicios p\u00fablicos y adem\u00e1s, permite que nosotros sepamos que contamos y tenemos el derecho para ser contado.<\/p>\n<p class=\"p3\">Nosotros, los Hispanos\/miembros de la comunidad Latinx, representamos alrededor del 52% de la poblaci\u00f3n de los Estados Unidos. Y m\u00e1s espec\u00edficamente, 12.8% (est. 200,000 hispanos) de Idaho.
