"The number has gotten so high because the 1929 Permanent #Apportionment Act has as a de facto matter capped the size of the House. The bill set the decennial reapportionment of the House on autopilot. It assigned the #Census Bureau the job of reporting a new 435-seat apportionment plan for the House to the president following each decennial census .... #Congress can change this number if it wants to, but it has not wanted to for nearly a century now."
