Stack the Senate instead of the Court

And it is not fair that Washington DC, which has more U.S. citizens than Wyoming and Vermont, has no representation in the US Senate.

That would bump us up to 56 states and increase the Senate to 112 seats.

Who is in favor?

I don't know about that particular approach. But I do think the current composition of the senate is blatantly unfair.

Starting with your territories that have no representation at all, including in the senate. Puerto Rico needs two senators or else you're just colonial occupiers. Guam and the others need at least a senator too. Washington, sure, that they de facto have no representation is weird and pretty un-democratic as well.
That California has two senators and the Dakotas have four also is pretty darn strange. I get the federalist approach, but this just takes it too far.
