Transforming representation so every American has a voice
True representation means everyone's vote translates into real political power
The 28th Amendment establishes proportional representation in the House of Representatives. This means the composition of Congress reflects the actual diversity of American political thought - not just which party won slightly more votes in artificially drawn districts.
If 30% of voters in a region support a particular approach, roughly 30% of their representatives will share that approach. No more winner-take-all elections where nearly half of voters have no voice.
Building a more representative democracy
Instead of single-member districts where one candidate takes all, larger regions elect multiple representatives. This allows different communities within the region to each have their voice heard.
Every vote contributes to electing someone who shares your values. No more "wasted" votes in safe districts. Whether you're a conservative in San Francisco or a progressive in rural Texas, your vote matters.
With proportional representation, voters can choose from candidates who actually represent their combination of values - not just the lesser of two evils. Third parties and independents become viable options.
When representation is proportional, drawing district lines to favor one party becomes pointless. The incentive to gerrymander disappears, and elections become truly fair.
With diverse representation, no single party dominates. Representatives must work together, find common ground, and build coalitions - just like the founders envisioned.
We are currently finalizing the precise language of the 28th Amendment with constitutional scholars and legal experts. The core principles - proportional representation, multi-member districts, and equal voice for all voters - are established. The exact wording will be shared soon.
