H.R. 6942 wants to change a big counting project called the census, where they count how many people live in different places, by asking if people are U.S. citizens or allowed to be in the country. This is to help make sure each place gets the right amount of helpers in the government called Representatives.

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.
