Draw the maps up independently and term limits maybe don't become as necessary.
I'm also highly in favor of increasing the number in the House. We have the same number of Representatives in the House based on what was set in 1911. With a population three times the size of that time, it is asinine that we have the same number of people representing us. My other ideas are a bit more radical, like eliminating districts altogether, ranked-choice-voting, etc.
