I noted in my public comment that an accurate census is key  in assuring
that the usual undercounted areas (Native American, Rural and Hispanic)
getting fair redistricting for the NM House, Senate and Public Education
Commission. Also, assuring NM at least keeps in number of Representatives
in Congress.
