One institutional change that is overdue is increasing the size of the House of Representatives

and then we need to go after their retirement benefits. if retired americans must rely solely on social security and Medicare then so should they. no more lifelong insurance and pension for them.

I could see congressional term limits as one of those institutional changes this new class tackles.

One of the administrative things they need to change is getting rid of the seniority requirement for committee chairs and other positions of leadership. The leaders and the chairs should go to the best person for the job, not the longest serving

fun fact… I was born exactly 9mos after Nixon resigned (which was also less coincidentally the week my parents closed on their home after living with my grandparents for a few months 😂)… so technically I am also a Watergate Baby

I really think we need to increase the size of the House and get rid of the district system in favor of a proportional representation and ranked choice voting. If we keep the districts then there should be more than 1 rep per district

I always wondered if there was as much crazy drama before TV or C-SPAN.
