SHOULD THE U.S. SENATE EXPAND TO 150 MEMBERS

As created by the U.S. Constitution, the Senate is made up of one hundred Senators divided into three classes.  One class is elected each two years with the result that in the class which has no representation in a particular state, four years must pass before the voters of that state can influence national issues through their vote in a Senatorial election.    

I suggest that a more equitable representation for every state in the U.S. Senate would be to expand the size of the Senate to one hundred and fifty members.  In doing so each and every state would elect a senator every two years and voter influence over current issues would not rest in the hands of those state fortunate enough to have a Senate Seat open for election in that particular election cycle.
