Census, Unemployment | August 21

On the August 21 edition of the Reporter Roundup, KPCC reporters discuss the 2020 Census, unemployment payments and childcare for young children. 

We are in the middle of the 2020 Census. Caroline Camplin explains how L.A. County is doing and why it’s one of the most difficult counties to count in the country. 

As part of the newsroom’s commitment to help people navigate these difficult times, David Wagner tackles some questions about unemployment payments.
