This can be done by law. No amendment needed.
By law the number of Reps. in the house can be multiplied by about 7 by fixing the population of every district as being around 100,000 people.
What this does is to ---
. . 1] Add about 2,900 more Electors to the electoral College. This gets the US closer to 1 man one vote for President. After this there would be about 3,300 members in the House plus 100 Senators = about 3,400 Electors.
. . 2] Make even the smallest state have enough Reps. to have multi-member districts. Wyoming would get 6 Reps.
Also, increase the size of the Supreme court a lot. Because I'm in favor of fairness I would suggest letting the Repuds choose 2 of 8 new justices, the Progressives choose 3 justices, and the American Bar Association choose 3 justices. Remember the Repuds already got their 3rd one in Gorsuch.
