    Total apportionment population\1\........................      281,424,177              435
----------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------
\1\ Includes the resident population for the 50 states, as ascertained by the Twenty-Second Decennial Census
  under Title 13, United States Code, and counts of overseas U.S. military and federal civilian employees (and
  their dependents living with them) allocated to their home state, as reported by the employing federal
  agencies. The apportionment population excludes the population of the District of Columbia.

Note: As required by the January 1999 U.S. Supreme Court ruling (Department of Commerce v. House of
  Representatives, 525 U.S. 316, 119 S. Ct. 765 (1999)), the apportionment population counts do not reflect the
  use of statistical sampling to correct for overcounting or undercounting.
