Year 2000 Census - House Oversight Committee - 1996-09-18 - Product 75229-1-DVD - U.S. House of Representatives.  House Committee on Government Reform and Oversight. Committee members debated a report on procedures for the 2000 census. They debated the merits of attempting to fully count citizens or counting representative samples, which would make the process much less expensive. Much of the discussion focused on how possible incorrect sampling and counting could impact the political process by making the resulting congressional districts misrepresentative of the actual population.
