The resolution expresses support for the Equal Representation Act (H.R. 7109), which was introduced on January 29, 2024. This legislation aims to require a citizenship question on the decennial census and modify the apportionment of United States Representatives and electoral votes to be based solely on the population of U.S. citizens, rather than including all individuals physically present in the country, including illegal immigrants. The resolution highlights the significant impact of census data on congressional representation, electoral votes, and the redistricting process, emphasizing that the current inclusion of noncitizens in census counts can dilute the political power of districts with fewer noncitizens.

The resolution further outlines concerns regarding illegal immigration, citing estimates that over 10 million individuals have entered the U.S. illegally under the Biden administration, contributing to a total noncitizen population that could reach 30 million. It argues that this large noncitizen population could significantly affect congressional representation if not addressed. The resolution calls for the protection of American citizens' rights to equal representation in government and urges the Senate to take action on the Equal Representation Act, which has already passed in the House of Representatives. Copies of the resolution will be sent to key congressional leaders to advocate for the bill's passage.
