What it does
The Correct the Count Act would require the Secretary of Commerce to conduct a census that counts only U.S. citizens, excluding non-citizens from population tabulations used for apportionment and other purposes. It would mandate the inclusion of a citizenship question on census forms to determine the citizenship status of respondents and their household members. The bill applies to the federal census process and affects how population data is collected and reported by the Bureau of the Census. It amends standard census procedures by overriding existing law to count citizens only in official population tabulations.
