Two Gainesville men and two other northeast Georgians are among 66 members of a task force Gov. Brian Kemp has appointed that he says will ensure every Georgians is counted in next year's Census.
The committee will be chaired by Rusty Haygood of the Department of Community Affairs and Anna Miller of the Governor's Office of Planning and Budget.
Two members of the committee, Lori Geary and Tharon Johnson, will serve as co-executive directors of a statewide marketing campaign for the 2020 census. Launched by the Governor's Office of Planning and Budget, this nonpartisan initiative is called "Every. One. Counts."
In addition to State Rep. Matt Dubnik, (R-Gainesville), and Mike Giles, also of Gainesville, the Executive Director of the Georgia Poultry Federation, other northeast Georgians included on the committee are State Rep. Terry Rogers (R-Clarkesville), and Union County Commissioner Lamar Paris.
