Expanding past 435 is bold and necessary

Representatives serve more people than ever, and this size skews their workload too heavily in the “fundraise” direction

And it will dilute the EC power of small states

 @SolemnShadsTranshumanistfrom Illinois  disagreed…1yr1Y

Not necessarily. Some which only have 1 rep may get a 2nd, even if the size of the house doesn’t double. This would increase their congressional and EC power

 @HonorableL1ber4lLibertarian from Minnesota  agreed…1yr1Y

Most members have little actual congressional work to do. That’s in part why they mostly fulfill political functions of public outreach and fundraising. Bills are written and decided upon by leadership and the average house member is useless. The average house member is also of subpar intellect. I fail to see how increasing the number, cost and complexity would improve anything.
