A RESOLUTION OF THE CITY COUNCIL OF THE
CITY OF AZUSA SUPPORTING THE CONCEPT OF
COUNTING EVERYONE IN THE 1990 CENSUS
WITHOUT REGARD TO CITIZENSHIP STATUS
WHEREAS, the federal government will conduct a 10 -year
census in 1990, and;
WHEREAS, the stated purpose of the census is to arrive
at the total count of everyone in the country regardless
of citizenship status, and;
WHEREAS, states, particularly Southern California, are
required to provide services to everyone, without regard of
citizenship status, and;
WHEREAS, the Congress of the United States is
considering restricting the census to legal citizens only, which
would effectively deny regions like Southern California vitally
needed federal dollars, and;
WHEREAS, the effect of this denial of federal funds
causes undue hardship on local governments to make up the
shortfall,
NOW, THEREFORE, the City Council of the City of Azusa
does hereby resolve as follows:
SECTION 1. The City Council of the City of Azusa
supports the concept of counting everyone in the 1990 Census
without regard to citizenship status.
SECTION 2. A copy of this resolution shall be
transmitted to the State Legislature and Executive Branch and the

local government.
SECTION 3. The City Clerk shall certify the adoption of
this resolution.
