United States Census Bureau
The United States Census Bureau (officially Bureau of the Census as defined in Title ) is a part of the United States Department of Commerce. It is the government agency that is responsible for the United States Census. In June 2007, President Bush nominated Steven H. Murdock to become the next director of the Census Bureau, replacing Charles Louis Kincannon. In 2006, Kincannon said he would leave the agency when a new director was confirmed. Kincannon said at the time he felt he had lost the confidence of the Commerce Department, which oversees the bureau. At the time of his nomination, Murdock was the state demographer of Texas and the Chair of Demography and Organization Studies at the University of Texas at San Antonio.
