With a complete count of everyone living in Texas, we will receive our fair share of federal <br />tax dollars to which we are entitled based on our growing population, as well as fair representation <br />at the local, state and federal levels. <br />On behalf of all Texans, I applaud you for participating in a Complete Count Committee in your <br />area and appreciate that this is a voluntary role for you and other Committee members. I am <br />confident that your Complete Count Committee will contribute greatly to ensuring the best results <br />in the upcoming census and that all persons in Texas will be counted. <br />Sincerel <br />f -~ <br />GEOR W.BUSH <br />GWB:vbm <br />Posr OFFICE Box 12428 Ausnrt, Texas 78711 (512) 463-2000 (Voice)/(512) 4753165 (TDD) <br />
