The Census Bureau and supporters of the program argue that the ACS helps
the government collect information needed to design federal programs. The
ACS is separate from the Census conducted every 10 years, which is
required under the Constitution.

Each year, 250,000 ACS surveys are mailed to people across the country,
and Census says it asks about age, sex, race, family relationships,
income, health insurance, education and disabilities.

of nondisclosure and are sworn for life to protect the confidentiality of
the data. Violating the oath is a serious crime. The penalty for unlawful
disclosure is a fine of up to $250,000 or imprisonment of up to 5 years,
or both."

constitutional requirement to count people for the purposes of
apportioning
