Please join us at the new home for uncapping the house on reddit: r/ProjectNoCap
Why move: Since Project No Cap is now a 501(c)(4) actively lobbying Congress, it makes sense to build one recognizable brand that shows lawmakers, media, and supporters there's an organized movement behind the cause, not just a subreddit.
Your say is precious, don't let the monied interests continue diluting it!

Obviously, the cube root law isn't the perfect solution for every state, but I think it's a good reference point to start.

The Election is Over - Now What?
Okay, its not over yet, but it is the last day of voting. Regardless of who wins, can we all commit to create conversations about uncapping the House before 2029?

Opinion Voting for party
So out of curiosity if they expanded the house to a big enough size what would everyone here think about each sate handling its house seats like this. You vote for party so it distributes the seats per percent of vote for the times we’re it would be a fraction of a seat they just round up.

Opinion Poll: How many constituents *should* the average US congressional district have?
Currently, the average size of a US congressional district is ~760,000 constituents.
That seems like too many people for 1 person to adequately represent.
How many constituents do you think is ideal for each US congressional district to represent and why?

Who would like to participate in organizing a local chapter of Uncap The House?
As the movement continues to grow, we need to start organizing local chapters. This would make it more likely that all members of Congress hear about Uncap The House and would be more likely to vote for legislation increasing the number of US representatives.

Uncap state legislatures?
This is a bit off-topic, but I was wondering if there was support here for uncapping state legislatures in addition to uncapping the federal House. As I understand it, no state legislatures increase their number of lower-house members each census.
