These questions are extremely important in the middle of the Coronavirus pandemic.

A discussion with panelists Brittany S. Smalls, Pennsylvania State Coordinator, Black Voters Matter Fund, and Jean Handley, Fair Districts PA, Dauphin County Coordinator on why its important to fill out the census this year, and how it relates to the redistricting next year here in Pennsylvania.
