    America Needs Business Numbers

    In December, the U.S. Census Bureau mailed Economic Census forms to more than 4 million businesses - to all large and medium businesses and many small businesses. If you received a form, the law (Title 13, U.S. Code) requires that you complete and return it. The due date is February 12, less than a month away.

    Economic indicators we use all the time -- like Gross Domestic Product, monthly retail sales, and the producer price index -- all depend on the Economic Census for continued accuracy. The data are also used by businesses large and small, and by this association. Ben Bernanke says this census is "indispensable to understanding America's economy."

    If you need more information or help completing the form, see the Census Bureau's business help site at www.census.gov/econhelp or call 1-800-233-6136.

    America needs your numbers.
