Our Unconstitutional Reapportionment Process

One irony about the new proposed list of census questions for 2030 is that the only question that may be constitutionally required as an original matter is not included. That question would ask Americans for information pertaining to Section 2 of the Fourteenth Amendment. As I laid in out in a paper published before the 2020 census, our current apportionment process is unconstitutional. Maybe this time around one or more states will raise that claim at the census stage or following the next reapportionment.
