Expresses support for "Equal Representation Act."
New Jersey's SCR 33 is a concurrent resolution expressing support for H.R. 7109, the "Equal Representation Act." This federal bill proposes requiring a citizenship question on the census and basing congressional apportionment (how many House seats each state gets) and electoral college votes on U.S. citizen population alone, rather than total population. The resolution urges federal lawmakers to pass this bill, which has already passed the House but not the Senate. It does not change law but formally advocates for altering how census data affects representation.
