AR HR1024

Urges the U.S. Census Bureau to count incarcerated persons at their residential addresses rather than at correctional institutions for redistricting purposes beginning with the next federal decennial census.

Identifies the current Census Bureau policy of counting prisoners at prison locations as distorting the "one person, one vote" principle by diluting representation in districts without prisons.

Notes that Arkansas Constitution requires use of federal census data for state redistricting, creating conflict with constitutional "one person, one vote" requirements.

Acknowledges the Census Bureau has already agreed to release prison population data to states for redistricting adjustments and has been responsive to states' data needs for three decades.

Directs the Arkansas House Chief Clerk to send official copies of the resolution to the U.S. Census Bureau Director and all members of the Arkansas Congressional Delegation.
