    On Monday, November 10 at 1:00 p.m. ET, join this webinar: BLACKOUT: Communities Without Vital Data. Learn what happens if we lose the public data that fuels funding, representation, and private enterprise. Under new proposals in Congress, many rural communities and small population subgroups across the country will be "blacked out" due to insufficient data collection. We'll explore Canada's experience adopting similar proposals, why US Census experts predict a majority of annual survey data will be unusable if enacted and what is at risk for vital planning and economic development information.
