    [dropcap size=big]T[/dropcap]ortas and the 2020 Census are probably two words that you probably would never have thought of going together.

Between selling monstrously delicious tortas filled with everything from head cheese to sliced hot dogs, they are making sure that their customers and local community made of mostly Latinos know the importance of being counted.
