A Census Bureau Top Official, Kathleen Styles, said Wednesday, that the Data from the 2020 Census will Not be Available until:

- For Apportionment Funding Numbers for States is Projected to be done by April 30th.

- For Redrawing Districts for States and Local Governments likely won't be ready until after July.

The Results are typically turned in by the End of the year in which the Census Occurred, 2020, however, the Coronavirus Pandemic caused Operations to be Suspended, and many Houses were Not Counted, resulting in the Government Agency requesting the Extensions.

At the end of December it was reported that the Census Bureau would be missing its Dec. 31st Deadline for the First Time since the Date was set by Congress 40 years ago.

Though the Deadline is a Legal Requirement, there is No Penalty for Missing it, and Historians have noted that the Census operated without Issue before the Deadline was put in place.

The Census experienced a Wide Array of Issues this year, with Reports that Census Workers were Pressured to Fill-Out as many Forms as possible in Order to meet Deadlines.

A Lawsuit filed in October 2020 claimed some Census Workers resorted to Guessing how many People lived in some Households. The Suit claims this was done in order to have the Census Completed while Trump was still in Office.

Trump had also Ordered Undocumented Immigrants to be Excluded from the U.S. Census, though a Federal Court Blocked this move stating it was Unlawful and President Biden Reversed the Order on his First day in Office.

The Delayed Timeline will have a Domino effect on States with Redistricting Deadlines, pointing out that many States have upcoming Primary Elections before July.

in 2021, maybe States will Not change their Districting. Then the Question is, do they wait another Ten years or requst a New Census?
