You may be thinking of re-districting.
The Virginia plan! It said that representation in Congress would be based on population.
The Connecticut Compromise proposed a bicameral legislature with two senators per state and a House of Representatives based on population.
In the New Jersey plan It wanted 1 representing body in congress with 2 people per state. In the Virginia plan it wanted 2 representing bodies in congress with the people depending on population.
The Virginia Plan called for representation in Congress by population or by the amount of money given to the central government.
I'm assuming you mean in Congress, the only branch where each state is individually represented. Yes, representation in the House of Representatives is based upon population, but there is a fixed number of representatives at 435, meaning that, with changing population, states could lose or gain seats in the House. However, representation in the Senate is equal for all states with 2 senators each. Territories do not have representation in Congress, though Washington, D.C. has a non-voting delegation to Congress.
The Virginia Plan proposed that both houses of Congress would be based on population.
