Conduct census and apportionment every 5 years

Objective:

To revise the decennial census interval to a five-year census for more accurate and timely apportionment of Congressional seats and government resources.

Rationale:

  • Population Dynamics: Rapid changes in population demographics and migration patterns are not adequately captured in the current ten-year interval.
  • Political Representation: More frequent censuses will ensure equitable representation in Congress, reflecting recent population shifts more accurately.
  • Resource Allocation: Improved timeline for adjusting federal and state resource distribution in alignment with current population data, enhancing the effectiveness of government programs.
