Iowa's representation in the U.S. House went down from five seats to four in 2013.
Reapportionment of seats in the House of Representatives is triggered by the decennial census, which occurs every ten years. After the census, the population data is used to determine how many representatives each state will receive, based on changes in population relative to other states. This process ensures that congressional representation reflects shifts in population across the country. The new apportionment takes effect for the next congressional election following the census.

Louisiana had 7 representatives in the US House of Representatives in 2005.However, in the reapportionment that followed the US Census of 2010, it lost one Congressional District. That meant it lost one representative. So, Louisiana will have 6 representatives from 2010 until the next Census and reapportionment in 2020, when there may or may not be another change.
As of now, Virginia has 11 representatives in the United States House of Representatives. This number can change based on the results of the decennial census and subsequent congressional reapportionment. The state's representation is influenced by its population size relative to other states.
