New York was 89 people away from not losing a congressional seat
Fox News
New York was one of seven states that the U.S. Census Bureau announced on Monday would lose a seat in the House of Representatives through the once-in-a-decade congressional apportionment from the 2020 Census.
Due to the decrease in the state’s population over the past decade, New York’s delegation in the House will edge down from 27 to 26 seats, a sign of diminishing clout on the federal level for a state that held 45 House seats from 1933-1953 and retained the largest state delegation in the chamber until 1973. The latest 2020 Census figures continue a decades old trend of a net shift of population – and House seats – from the Northeast and the Midwest to the South and West.More Related News
