Caribbean Census Push Gains Momentum With Companion Senate Bill
http://www.caribpr.com/details.asp?prid=991 - CaribWorldNews, NEW YORK, NY, Weds. May 20, 2009: The push by Carib ID for a Caribbean origin category on the U.S. Census form is gaining momentum, with the introduction on Tuesday of a companion senate bill.
New York Senators Charles Schumer and Kristin Gillibrand on May 19, 2009, introduced the companion bill to Rep. Yvette D. Clarke's Caribbean Count Bill, (H.R. 2071), which was introduced on April 23rd.
The Senate bill, like the House bill, calls for all questionnaires used in the taking of any decennial census of the U.S. population, to include a checkbox or a similar option be included so that respondents may indicate Caribbean extraction or descent.
