Florida Report on Transportation Impact from Census Undercounts

Share

A new Florida TaxWatch report on “the potential fiscal loss to local areas” as a result of the 2020 Census undercount in Florida focused on the transportation industry and “how it impacts infrastructure planning and federal funding allocations.” The report warned that, as Florida “aims to budget adequate funding for transportation projects, an accurate census count must be prioritized to secure the dollars that rightfully belong to the state of Florida.”

The report also recommended four actions for Floridians to take to “prepare residents for full participation in the 2030 Census.”
