    You forgot to add removing the arbitrary size limit for Congress imposed by the apportionment Act of 1929 which directly led to gerrymandering even being a possibility. “Representation” is so inaccurate now that it’s hard to even claim it could be constitutional at this point.

      Gerrymandering goes back to 1812.
