As the U.S. population continues to grow and we retain the same number of House Seats, we in effect are granting an increasing advantage to smaller states whose populations tend to grow at a slower rate.

We have not increased the number of House Seats for nearly a century excluding the admission of new states.

Since the addition of two Senate Seats was meant to counteract the advantage of more populous states over smaller states but now the House Seat "freeze" is magnifying that effect, how do we--or do we--resolve the situation?
