I agree.

They should also change the house so that each member represents abound 250K people. With today’s technology there is no reason for them to be limited by the size of the capital building. Or build a stadium sized structure for when they have to meet.

The House Rep.s should have to spend most of their time living among the people they represent.

We would actually have a functional congress if we reformed the Senate and the House.

Originally, it was 30,000 per representative. The problem accurate representation of the populace. There is NO WAY ON EARTH that one person can accurately represent the opinions of 650,000 citizens.
