Answer:
The correct answer here is D: Make representatives more responsive to public opinion
Explanation:
The way that elections work in Congress, and especially the House of Representatives, as established by the U.S Constitution, in the Senate 100 Senators, two from each state, are elected and serve unlimited 6-year terms, while the House of Representatives has 435 members, which are elected from each district in the United States, and they serve unlimited 2-year terms. Around the 1990´s, many reformists proposed, including the Republican Party, to change this in the Constitution, and established limited terms of office for both Senators and House members, but the proposals never passed. As of today, changes have not been made to the way that Congress works. However, the idea of placing 2-year terms in the House, was to make members more answerable to their constituents, as their election depends on the decision made by voters of each district. And made every 2 years, instead of longer, forces House members to work diligently for the needs of their voters, so that they can be reelected for the next term.
