Good idea. Would be simpler, cleaner to expand the House. bsky.app/profile/stev...
The effects of gerrymandering would be essentially eliminated by reducing representation back to the way it was at our founding. Each lawmaker now represents roughly 770,000 residents, compared to just 33,000 when at our founding. Just doubling the House from 435 to 870 would make a difference.
