Just days before the National Census Day on April 1, Congresswoman Lucille Roybal-Allard and U.S. Census Bureau Regional Director James Christy  joined more than 1,000 parishioners at St. Mathias Church in Huntington Park to remind people to turn in their census forms by April 16, 2010. Congresswoman Roybal-Allard emphasized the importance of the Census in determining federal funding for local communities and urged everyone to participate.
