West: Army representation ratio, 2004-2005

NPP In Action

"NPP was an integral part of our series of Town Hall meetings entitled 'Agenda for a Shared Prosperity' we sponsored around the state. It was especially significant to have cost of war figures for each Congressional District as citizens saw how their Representative's votes impact their own locale."

- Gary Zuckett, Exc. Dir.

The chart below indicates the population representation of recruits for each state in the West region. Each bar represents a ratio of two proportions: the state's share of total recruits over the state's share of the total youth population. A score of one or more means that the state is over-represented in the Army. A score of less than one means that the state is under-represented in the Army for the fiscal year.

Notes: Army data were obtained from the Army through a FOIA request submitted by NPP for 2005; 2004 data was obtained by Peacework magazine through a FOIA request and sent as received to NPP.
