To make the House of Representatives work again, make it bigger

In 1929, Babe Ruth swatted a league-leading 46 home runs, and the New York Stock Exchange crashed, triggering the Great Depression. Women could finally vote; but blacks would wait decades for the Civil Rights Act.  The U.S. population in 1929 was 121,767,000. While much has changed since 1929, one very important thing unfortunately has stayed the same: the size of Congress. Eighty-nine years later, there are still just 435 members of the House of Representatives.
