No Representation Without Legal Immigration Act
This bill would amend the census law to exclude non-citizen residents from the population count used to determine congressional representation. It directly affects states with significant non-citizen populations, as their number of House seats could decrease in future apportionments. The key provision changes the statutory language to explicitly exclude "individuals who are not citizens of the United States" from the population figure. This change would apply starting with the 2030 census and all subsequent decennial counts.
