AI-generated summary, report an errorThis bill would require the Secretary of Commerce to revise the 2020 census state population totals so they count only U.S. citizens. Within 60 days after the bill becomes law, the Secretary would send each state its revised citizen-only population count. Starting 60 days after a state receives its revised count, the federal government could not award grants to that state unless the state uses only the revised count for every purpose it used the original count for, and does not use the original count.
