The Census Bureau’s mission remains a beacon of hope amidst the transition of administrations, according to former director Robert Santos. He highlighted four key strengths of the Bureau’s staff: their dedication to providing quality statistical data, with each person contributing uniquely to the mission. The Bureau’s values of scientific integrity, objectivity, transparency, and independence guide decision-making. Staff resilience was evident when 80% of them successfully conducted a quality decennial census during a global health crisis. Additionally, the strong bonds among colleagues provide mutual support. Santos also noted the significant external support from stakeholders, emphasizing the importance of these communities in advocating for the Bureau and the federal statistical community during challenging times.
