@Phil @realcaseyrollins Congress is currently broken. It's very urgently in need of reform. Its purpose is to be a chamber of experts, both wrt the interests and values of constituents and the workings of law and government. right now they, like the President, are reality TV stars with little coherent capacity or ability to represent. we don't survive very long like this. 1/

@Phil @realcaseyrollins state representatives are entirely a mystery to most citizens. states are not closer to the people. if they act a bit ore sanely, it's because they are farther from some noise, and their tasks have more directly visible consequences that can embarrass mostly governors.
