国勢調査への回答は、私たちの未来への回答

 米国連邦政府は、十年に一度、米国内の全ての住人の人数を数える

事を憲法により義務付けられており、国勢調査によりこの義務を

果 たしています。

調査の目標は、年齢・人種・宗教・滞在資格に関わらず、国内

全ての人間が参加する事です。全員参加が義務付けられています。

国勢調査は、医療保険・教育・社会福祉プログラムに向けた資金を

含めた年間4000億ドル以上の連邦資金の配分に直接影響を

及ぼします。コミュニティの人口一人につき1400ドルが

支給されるのです。

また、国勢調査の結果は、州毎の議席の配分を検討(再配分)する唯一

の基準であり、下院・州・地方の各選挙区の境界を決定(再区画)する

重大な要因となります。

国勢調査への参加は、簡単で、安全で、また、不可欠です。2010年

3月に、米国内の全家庭に国勢調査質問票が送付されます。どの家庭も

回答を記入のうえ、2010年4月1日までに質問票を返送する事を

義務付けられています。

何故2010年度国勢調査に回答すべきなのですか?

  • 国勢調査の結果は、私たちのコミュニティの政治的強化に

直結しています。例えば、このデータは、各州が下院において何議席割り

当てられるか(再配分)を定める唯一の基準であり、下院・州・地方

の各選挙区の境界線を引く(再区画)為の重大な要因となります。

  • 更に、国勢調査の結果は、 学校・輸送機関・公衆衛生・その

他英語教育や職業訓練などの社会福祉プログラムの為に、毎年

4000億ドル以上の連邦資金がどのように各コミュニティに

分配されるかに直結しています。

  • 各地方のコミュニティ団体は、英語教育や職業訓練などのサービス

提供に必要な資金を民間又は公共の財源に要請する際、国勢調査の

データを使用します。

  • 新たな学校や教育関連施設は、地域の子供の人口に基づいて

建設されます。

  • 国勢調査のデータは、アジア系アメリカ人・太平洋諸島系人

・ハワイ先住民の各コミュニティに仕える企業や店舗に、どの

地域に拡張すれば有効かという情報を提供する事ができます。

  • 病院などの医療機関が特定のアジア言語補助サービスを提供する

際、国勢調査の結果が要因の一つとなります。

あなたの家族や友人が、参加の重要性や2010年度国勢調査の基本に

ついてより理解を深める為の資料が同封されています。

これらの資料には以下の項目が含まれています:

  • 質問票に表示される10個の質問の例
