AI Summary
This bill requires the reallocation or exclusion of incarcerated persons from the census population counts used for redistricting in Minnesota. Specifically, it states that incarcerated individuals with a last known address in Minnesota must be reallocated to the census block of their last known address, while those with a last known address outside of Minnesota must be excluded from the population count. The bill also requires the commissioner of corrections to provide the necessary data to the Legislative Coordinating Commission to conduct these reallocations and exclusions. The revised census block populations that reflect these changes must be used for the purpose of drawing congressional, legislative, and local government election districts.
