Attached is a summary of President Bush's Fiscal Year 2009 budget
request for the Census Bureau (focus on 2010 census and economic
statistics) and the Bureau of Economic Analysis from Terri Ann
Lowenthal. I usually post these "Census News Brief" verbatim but due to
the length of this one (4 pages) I am attaching it as a word document.
