IN THE HOUSE OF REPRESENTATIVES 
MAY 22, 2006 
Mrs. MILLER of Michigan (for herself and Mr. REHBERG) introduced the 
following bill; which was referred to the Committee on Government Reform 
A BILL 
To prevent congressional reapportionment distortions. 
Be it enacted by the Senate and House of Representa-

(2) the established policy of the Bureau of the 
Census is to make a concerted effort to count the 
foreign born population within the United States 
without making a separate computation for illegal 
aliens; and 
(3) by including the millions of illegal aliens in 
the reapportionment base for the House of Rep-
resentatives, many States will lose congressional rep-
resentation which such States would not have other-
wise lost, thereby violating the constitutional prin-
ciple of ‘‘one man, one vote’’. 
(b) ADJUSTMENTS
TO PREVENT DISTORTIONS.— 
Section 141 of title 13, United States Code, is amended— 
(1) by redesignating subsection (g) as sub-

lowing:

subsequent decennial censuses and to provide for appor-
tionment of Representatives in Congress’’, approved June
