and I still insist

the current DC voting rights proposal is utterly unconstitutional and flawed.
  • my reading of the Constitution is clear that it requires being a state to have house representation at all
  • i'm against the very thought of a state-wide at-large seat in congress because it is against the Constitution's idea that the house represent people by district
only an amendment will change either of those, and that's not forthcoming while the Republicans control more states.

my impression is that things brings us to 437 voting members (and 5 non-voting).
