Representation and a Constitutional US Congress
The US Constitution was written 220 years ago this summer, but there is a number that is being ignored – the number “thirty Thousand”. In fact, this is the number used to represent We the People. The number was put there 220 years ago on 17 September 1787 by the founders and at the expressed wish of George Washington.
