A 307 New Jersey General Assembly · 2026-2027 Regular Session

Requires Secretary of State to adjust census redistricting data to remove noncitizens for redistricting purposes in this State.

This bill requires New Jersey's Secretary of State to adjust census data used for redistricting by removing all noncitizens (including legal residents and undocumented individuals) from population counts. It directly affects all New Jersey legislative, county, and municipal districts, as these boundaries would be redrawn based solely on the citizen population. The key mechanism mandates that the Secretary of State exclude noncitizens from census data when establishing district lines, per Section 2 of the bill. This changes how districts are drawn to reflect only citizen residents, rather than the full population count used in current redistricting.
