Federal Drive with Tom Temin show

Summary: As the Census Bureau conducts its field test for the 2020 population count, Congress is worried the project is falling behind schedule and over budget. The Census Bureau is testing new technology and procedures in field testing in Providence, Rhode Island. Agency officials gave members of the House Oversight and Government Reform Committee a status update last month. Former Census Director Robert Groves tells Federal News Radio's Jory Heckman on Federal Drive with Tom Temin how the Census Bureau can make the best use of that new technology.
