Resolution
On March 21, 2019, the Washington County Commissioners passed a resolution forming the Washington County Complete Count Committee. The Resolution states:
"NOW THEREFORE BE IT RESOLVED by the Washington County Board of Commissioners that all Washington County offices, through reasonable means, participate in the Census 2020 Complete Count Program, to partner with the Commonwealth of Pennsylvania and with the U.S. Census Bureau, to ensure that every resident in the County of Washington is counted in the year 2020."
