    The Guardian (Moderate Left) • Factual Grade 80% • 3 min read

    The US constitution requires the federal government to take a census of the population every 10 years. That tally is used to allocate seats in the House and determine how almost $1.5tn in federal dollars are allocated. The changes in seat counts will also reflect changes to each state’s electoral college votes for the next decade.
    ...
    The US saw a total population growth of 7.4% over the last decade, the second slowest change in US history.

[Texas, Colorado, Montana, Oregon, North Carolina and Florida] will gain a congressional seat.
    ...
    Monday’s announcement was an important milestone in the once-a-decade process of redrawing electoral boundaries, which is also required by the constitution. Census officials are expected to deliver redistricting data to states later this year.
