Census 2020 and Reapportionment
Big Red Car here getting ready to take a long drive to the Hill Country, but first a few words on the census and reapportionment.
Every ten years the United States conducts a census. It is done in order to reapportion the seats in the House of Representatives.
There are a fixed number of seats — 435. Right now, a Congressperson represents 712,000 persons.
