In addition to defining the noun words
"reapportionment" and "Census" with links to dictionary
sites, I found research that gives a thorough informational about the process
of "reapportionment" which is not only specific to the United States
method, but to other nations, as well.
The correct understanding of these
noun words, "reapportionment" and "Census" will help to comprehend
why this issue is so misunderstood, and can influence daily life in the USA.
Who represents each state can be a
contentious issue, the more seats a political party
has in Congress determines who is in control of the majority political party
making the laws, which can be the one in opposition to the current
administration.
The duly elected President of the
USA needs congress to make the laws that will give that administration an edge
in accomplishing what the voters elected the POTUS to do, if the
reapportionment of Congress is favoring the opposition to the current administration,
of course, all sorts of issues can develop, mostly with the current
administration, another round of attempts at impeachment, and stalemating any and
all attempts of the current administration to accomplish the goals that the
voters who put the POTUS in office for 4 years to accomplish what is expected
with laws that help that agenda.
For the noun word
"Census" I used a dictionary site, and also a more scholarly site,
which explains the legalities that some say are 'ambiguities' in the language of exactly who is a legal
citizen of the USA included in the Census count for reapportionment.
Both political parties Republicans
and Democrats have a stake in determining a reapportionment in time for the
2026 midterm elections, and each may use all the Constitutional methods
available, including "SCOTUS shadow docket" which my research link to
Wikipedia.com has defined, however, my research confirms that who will prevail
remains uncertain until SCOTUS takes the case, which will come from the side
that activates "Shadow docket".
Legal experts will continue to weigh in as to what happens when via "Shadow docket" SCOTUS issues a decision as to whether it will take the case, thus temporarily postponing any 2025 action on the issue, perhaps even giving a victory to the side that wants to postpone until after the 2026 elections.
