And to al the people typing away “yOu hAVe tHe hOusE oF RePs!”:

And due to the cap on the number of seats in the House and partisan gerrymandering, large states and urban areas get short changed in the House too.

California has 80x the population of Wyoming, yet only 53x the number of reps.

In 2018, Dems won 50% of the House votes in North Carolina, but only won 3/13 House seats.

So just how much are you willing to disenfranchise urban voters like me before you will considering tyranny?

Let me guess, we’re not “real” Americans, like rural, conservative, blue collar folks, right?

Puerto Rico has ~3 million people and pays some federal taxes (though not the income tax). They are US citizens. They have zero representation in congress.

Just to be clear, that's more people than the bottom four states combined. Zero say.

California brings in more GDP (and therefore pays more taxes) than the bottom 25 states combined.
