The former head of the Utah Department of Veterans Affairs is pushing for the U.S. census to include a question about veterans next year. Terry Schow, a Vietnam veteran, wants the 2020 census to ask about veteran status so the state can have a more accurate count of people with military service, the Standard-Examiner reported April 20. "It's really just one question: Are you a veteran?" Schow said. The Census Bureau pulled the veteran status question from the questionnaire in 2010, according to the agency.
