PEOPLE Within your museum are stories of place and people — made possible by the support of people like you — people who see opportunity in the future and contribute to make lives better. In 2017, your vision and generosity created an expanded museum with new spaces to share stories of our North. You helped build a museum that is more than bricks and mortar — it’s a place for open minds and shared ideas, experiences and dreams. This report is to express gratitude to everyone who helped make museum spaces and programs possible in this year. Here’s to you and to a future you make possible through your continued support today.

We appreciate your frequent briefings and inclusion of medical professionals, business leaders, and neighbors. We are writing today with deep concern regarding early distribution of the CARES Act funds that did not make it to many small businesses in Anchorage. As of April 16, over 5,000 Alaskan businesses have received emergency relief loan funds through the Federal CARES Act. However, during a recent discussion with Anchorage Community Land Trust (ACLT), we learned that a substantial number of businesses located in Anchorage’s economic opportunity zones have not been able to access those loans. According to a survey conducted by ACLT, many small businesses located in these economic opportunity zones are experiencing significant barriers in qualifying or applying for these federal loans. As the Paycheck Protection Program and Economic Injury Disaster Loans were specifically created to retain employees, small businesses with less than 50 employees that do not have sophisticated relationships with large financial institutions, a robust bookkeeping system, are seasonal, or are recent start-ups are left unable to access these loans. The net result of the above barriers means many small businesses located in Anchorage’s economic opportunity zones, specifically those that are minority and women-owned, are unable to access the financial resources needed to sustain their operations during the COVID-19 related mandatory closures.

    August 31, 2020 The Honorable Mitch McConnell The Honorable Chuck Schumer Majority Leader Minority Leader United States Senate United States Senate Washington, DC 20510 Washington, DC 20510 The Honorable Nancy Pelosi The Honorable Kevin McCarthy House Speaker Minority Leader United States House of Representatives United States House of Representatives Washington, DC 20510 Washington, DC 20510 Dear Leader McConnell, Speaker Pelosi, Leader Schumer, and Leader McCarthy: We write to urge you to include language in the next the coronavirus relief package to extend statutory reporting deadlines for the 2020 Census by four months. Further, we implore you to include language to extend the deadline for data collection to October 31, 2020. We are alarmed by the U.S. Census Bureau's August 3rd announcement that it would finish collecting data for the decennial count by September 30, 2020. This move will rush the enumeration process, result in inadequate follow-up, and undercount immigrant communities and communities of color who are historically undercounted. Senior career staff at the Census Bureau have publicly stated that meeting the statutory deadlines is impossible because of the delays that have already occurred. This decision to rush the Census in the wake of a pandemic raises concerns about the Bureau’s ability to accurately and completely count every person living in the United States. A rushed Census would hurt a diverse range of rural and urban communities, leaving them underrepresented locally and in Congress and cutting their fair share of federal funding for Medicaid, economic development, child care, schools, road and public transit improvements, home heating assistance for senior citizens, and many more vital services.

  • Sent a Letter
    March 26, 2020 Dr. Steven Dillingham, Ph.D Director United States Census Bureau Washington, DC 20233 Dear Dr. Dillingham: Given the unprecedented events associated with the Novel Coronavirus (COVID-19) outbreak, we urge you to extend the Census response deadline beyond its currently scheduled conclusion on August 14, 2020 to September 30, 2020 and authorize United States Census Regional Offices to exercise flexibility in the timeline for enumeration in their respective jurisdictions. As our cities continue to dedicate resources to respond to this outbreak and take strong precautionary measures to ensure social distancing, there will be diminished capacity to administer the Census. A Census count under these circumstances would not only fail to properly account for our current population, particularly our most vulnerable residents, but could also have dire consequences for our communities’ public health. Over the past two years, our cities have worked with thousands of community-based and faith-based organizations to develop a wide array of targeted outreach strategies to educate and motivate residents to respond to the 2020 Census. These outreach strategies heavily rely on direct, face-to-face communication and interaction with residents to encourage participation in the Census and overcome barriers to participation that cause many communities to be historically undercounted. With the mandated cessation of all large gatherings and the imposition of social distancing practices, our cities and partners have had to cancel meetings, workshops, community and neighborhood events, as well as a variety of door-to-door canvassing operations. We know that none of these tried and true outreach methods are possible in the midst of the COVID-19 pandemic, and that any Census count that occurs without this outreach will cause an historic and extremely damaging undercount.
