Congressional apportionment has most to do with the distribution of seats in the U.S. House of Representatives among the states based on population. This process occurs every ten years after the decennial census, ensuring that representation reflects changes in population size and demographics. The goal is to provide equitable representation for all citizens across different states.
Representation is based on population. Each state is broken up into counties which contain "congressional districts" with a specific number of residents which, when such number is surpassed, requires the creation of a new district.
