"Restoring the Representation of Legal Residents Act;" requires Secretary of State to adjust census apportionment and redistricting data to remove illegal alien population for apportionment and redistricting purposes in this State.

The "Restoring the Representation of Legal Residents Act" requires New Jersey's Secretary of State to adjust census data used for redistricting by excluding undocumented immigrants. It mandates using specific datasets - including U.S. Census citizenship data and New Jersey Motor Vehicle Commission records - to create an adjusted population count for determining congressional, state legislative, county, municipal, and school district boundaries. This adjustment would apply to all districting processes in the state, replacing the standard census count that includes all residents. The bill specifies that if the federal Census Bureau provides a legal-resident-only count, that data would be used instead of the state-adjusted version.
