senate 06/29/2025 - 119th Congress

We are working to ensure that the census counts only U.S. citizens when determining congressional representation and electoral votes. Our goal is to provide more accurate data on citizenship status to guide fair apportionment of Representatives across the states.

I get the push for clarity, but sidelining noncitizens in apportionment risks ignoring real community needs.

Counting every person living here, regardless of citizenship, turned representation into a political circus.

Why should states get more power for people who can’t even vote? This bill fixes that mismatch perfectly.

Balancing fair representation with honesty sounds simple, but this bill stacks the deck too much on one side.

If you deny a voice to all residents, you’re throwing fairness out the window and rigging the game.

Sure, citizenship matters—but the census is about everyone living here, not just who holds a passport.

Counting only citizens? That’s just another way to erase communities and weaken our democracy.

Excluding immigrants from representation? Sounds like a census that’s more about politics than people.

Finally, some common sense—only citizens should count when deciding who gets a seat in Congress.
