Of course because the members of Congress never change.

And that has what to do with a constitutional amendment? You commies aren't very good a staying on topic, are ya?

[OKTexas]

Meh not Utah they have a decent population size. Wyoming, Idaho, and the Dakotas are not even the population size of a small metro area.

AND? They still have a Star on the flag, so they get two senators.

[OKTexas]

Correct - and like Wyoming, their votes carry 2-3 times the weight of a vote in CA, TX, FL and NY thanks to the EC.
GO empty acres and Pronghorn Sheep!
Fuck 'em

Does the commie need a tissue. 1 person in WY is worth 10,000 of you west coasties.

The US and Papau New Guinea are the only 2 countries in the world without paid family leave.

Wow, could you tell a bigger lie?

[westwall]

They got like a million and a half people between the two of them and they get four senators?

WTF?

Yeah, that pesky Constitution. The Founders figured out hundreds of years ago that having two States run the country is a bad idea.

 

[westwall]

Because you are human garbage.

So that would make you feces...critter type, unknown.

 

[OKTexas]

Wait. . . from what I understand of the woke POV, I thought when Chris Columbus arrived, folks already destroyed America?

Columbus never set foot in what is now the continental US.

The states elect the president and determine the makeup of the Senate – these provisions of the Constitution are fundamentally anti-democratic.

Correct. The Founders were far more intelligent than you and had read about the Greek mob.

They set us up as a Constitutional REPUBLIC to prevent the danger of the mob.

It's not that they have x amount of people; it's that they have two fully formed state governments. Two elected Governors, two state legislatures, two Constitutions. They're two states.

If we start determining who gets Senators and who doesn't based on their population, that undermines the whole idea of having two chambers in the first place.
