It’s called the Senate not the House of Representatives. Senators represent the states. Each state is its own sovereign entity. Each state was admitted into the union with the full knowledge they would get two senators regardless of their population. If you just want it to be another House of Representatives then it serves no real purpose and should just be done away with.
