“Can I talk with you about representation? Do you feel represented? Do you feel powerless?”
Hear them out, then give them some answers.
“Do you know why we have 435 members in the House?”
American citizens are unrepresented, and there is no way to avoid it. House representation has been capped at 435 since 1929. Since then, the population has tripled, moving the people further away from their representatives. An average house member in 1929 represented about 220,000 people. Now, they represent about 756,000. Power is concentrated, and that leads to corruption.
Our Republic divides, separates, and balances power and then vests that power into representatives in the House. This ensures no one faction can oppress the rest. We need to increase the representation in the House to give the powerless power. Increasing representation increases opportunity and accountability. It gives the people a voice and ensures they can hold their representatives accountable.
Increasing the size of the House makes a big government small.
