Summary of Bill S 1175
Bill 119 s 1175, also known as the "Population Tiers Act," aims to make changes to section 6903 of title 31 in the United States Code. The main purpose of this bill is to add more population tiers to better represent the diverse population of the United States.
Currently, section 6903 of title 31 categorizes populations into three tiers based on size: under 50,000, 50,000 to 249,999, and 250,000 or more. This bill seeks to add additional tiers to more accurately reflect the varying sizes of populations across the country.
The bill does not specify the exact number or names of the new population tiers that will be added, but it does state that the changes will be made to ensure that federal funding and resources are distributed equitably and efficiently to communities of all sizes. Overall, the Population Tiers Act aims to improve the allocation of resources and funding to communities based on their population size, ultimately benefiting a wider range of Americans.
