Family Research Council

April 6, 2010

Ignoring federal and state laws defining marriage as the union of a man and a woman, the U.S. Census Bureau released videos on Monday encouraging homosexual couples who consider themselves "married".

The Defense of Marriage Act forbids the federal government from recognizing same-sex relationships as 'marriages.' If this video were honest, it would state, 'If you are a same-sex couple, you should mark the box that says 'unmarried partner,' even if you are legally married according to the laws of the state in which you reside.'

ACORN is the hyperpartisan lead group in the Health Care for America Now (HCAN) coalition and has long supported a government takeover of the U.S. health care system.

A number of conservatives and Libertarians believe the census should be nothing more than a head count, not a collection of personal information. They plan to answer only the first question on the census form - how many people live in the house.

The resistance is not new. In 2000, only 67 percent of households responded to the census. Wes Benedict, executive director of the Libertarian Party, cited a Cato Institute report that census information was used during World War I to locate draft resistors and during World War II to round up Japanese-Americans and put them in internment camps.

U.S. Census Coming to a Mailbox Near You

Free Libertarian

by Mike Renzulli

March 15, 2010

Since the U.S. Census is starting this week, I would urge you all to just fill out the section that asks how many people live in your home and send it back with all of the other information on the form left blank.

While I understand why they do it, the fact that the federal government is appealing to a people's sense of entitlement in order to justify the continued theft of people's private property and pitch their (albeit) intrusive questions is outright immoral.
