Republican state attorneys general have initiated legal action to prevent unauthorized immigrants from being counted in congressional apportionment. With President Trump back in office, he signed an executive order rescinding Biden's directive and pushed for a citizenship question to be included in the 2030 census. This initiative follows the previous attempt in 2020, which aimed to exclude illegal immigrants from the count, ultimately influencing how seats and Electoral College votes are distributed among states. The GOP argues this approach could advantage Republicans and non-Hispanic whites in redistricting.
