U.S. Census Bureau

The U.S. Census Bureau is an agency of the U.S. Department of Commerce whose director is appointed by the President of the United States. Responsible for producing data about the American people and economy, the agency conducts a survey (or a census) every ten years as mandated by the U.S. Constitution.
In 2020, the U.S. Census Bureau partnered with Sesame Workshop to produce a series of PSAs to help promote the methods by which Americans can take part in the census. The 60, 30, and 15 second spots feature Count von Count, Rosita, Rosa, and Elmo matted against a photo of 123 Sesame Street. The PSAs were distributed online by The Ad Council and local broadcasters, and aired before episodes of Sesame Street Season 50.
