H. RES. 1194 is a plan for discussing different ideas in the House of Representatives, like how we save energy, who answers questions in the national survey, how we count people for deciding how many Representatives each state gets, and rules about using land for mining. The plan says how long people can talk about these ideas and what changes they can ask for.

House Resolution 1194 is like a set of playground rules for how to talk about four different ideas: making sure energy-saving gadgets are useful, asking people if they're a citizen on a big survey, disagreeing with a money rule, and making sure people who dig for treasure can keep their spaces.

The Equal Representation Act is a new rule that says the government has to ask if people are citizens when they count everyone in the country every ten years, and only citizens will count to decide how many representatives each state gets.

The bill wants to add a question asking if people are U.S. citizens on the big country count every ten years. It also says that only citizens should be counted to decide how many people will represent each state in Congress, starting in 2030.
