    The Constitution prescribes Congres-sional apportionment based ondecennial census population data. Eachstate has at least one Representative, nomatter how small its population. Since

    1941, distribution of Representatives hasbeen based on total U.S. population, sothat the average population perRepresentative has the least possiblevariation between one state and anyother. Congress fixes the number ofvoting Representatives at eachapportionment. States delineate thedistrict boundaries. The first House ofRepresentatives in 1789 had 65members; currently there are 435.There are non-voting delegates fromAmerican Samoa, the District ofColumbia, Guam, Puerto Rico, and theVirgin Islands.
