Day 671. 45 House members just asked the Commerce Secretary to count only citizens for apportionment. Whatever you think of that, ask why the fight over who counts gets so fierce. The pie is fixed at 435. Every seat one state gains, another loses. Uncap the House.
Day 670. ABC News rates 16 of 435 House races as tossups. On Tuesday, voters in those few districts pick the House majority for the whole country. That isn't a voter problem. It's a design problem. More seats, smaller districts, fewer kingmakers. Uncap the House.
Day 669. I am a lawyer and, as of today, a private pilot who demands, and will continue to demand, we Uncap our House of Representatives.
Day 668: CBS says 47 districts out of 435 will likely decide the House. So nearly 9 in 10 Americans live where the outcome is all but set. That's not an election. That's a formality. Smaller districts mean more seats in play and reps within reach. Uncap the House.
Day 667: In Houston's new TX-9, 97 of every 100 residents were in a different district last time. They didn't move. The lines did. Districts this big let a mapmaker swap out your representative without asking you. Smaller districts mean a rep you actually know. Uncap the House.

Day 665: Fifteen House districts were redrawn mid-decade to be sure things. Only five still are. One North Carolina race is drawing over $42M in ads. That's what scarcity does. Freeze the House at 435 and every seat is worth rigging and buying. Uncap it and the payoff shrinks.
Day 664. Every structural fight is a fight over seats. Court size and House size are both set by statute, not the Constitution. But only one change gives every American more of a voice instead of one party more power. 435 since 1911. Uncap the House.
Day 663. Everyone's asking how to get Congress to vote itself out of a job for term limits. Wrong question. Term limits need a constitutional amendment. Uncapping the House needs one bill, and nobody loses their seat. Want new faces in Congress? Make room. Uncap the House.
Day 662. It’s Friday. Which means my phone stops ringing tomorrow. And the day after that.
I remember when I thought it was cool that my phone was also a camera and computer. Now I long for days with no screens.
Just humans and conversation I love.
Just an uncapped House waiting to answer the questions we wrote down over the weekend.
Day 661. I worry, but not too much. I work, but just the right amount.
Our Congress of Representatives on the other hand, does nothing well, or just the right amount.
Instead, they are forced into a machinery that demands working too much, overpromising, and underdelivering. They worry about all the wrong things.
No wonder America is flailing. @UncapTheHouse with @Project_No_Cap
Day 659. Uncap the House if you want America to remain competitive with China, and outperform all Countries.
We are live

Day 658. This is genius. The Trump Accounts are in many ways inferior to the 529. My principle problem is that the kid takes complete control of Trump Accounts on their 18th birthday. I don’t like the incentives of giving an 18 year old millions of dollars with no strings attached. But owning a share of SpaceX that you can decide to sell or keep is a more interesting discussion for years 10-18.
An uncapped House could further tweak the incentives to optimize outcomes. Elon should help.
Day 657. An uncapped House would begin to end the mental health crisis which has led to so many school shootings. Please need to be heard, first and foremost. Paying a counselor who cannot address your problems doesn’t help. Representation is the missing ingredient.
Day 656. Love is spelled T I M E.
Now you know how much I love representation.
Not as much as I love God and Family. That time is spent offline.
