Not convinced this plan is "right" or even workable. But it does address many of the issues resulting form a static legislature, and does so in creative ways. This piece gives the reader much to think about. Kudos.

Two comments. First, feel free to post this in our forum also, maybe here: https://forum.thirty-thousand.org/viewforum.php?f=27 There may not be much traffic there, but our site is well embedded in the search engines, so it may make it more discoverable over time. (You could also link back to this posting.) Second, I had the same thought about a distributed national legislature, but not as detailed as what you outlined. I then shifted to the model where most of the legislators work virtually from their home districts as explained here: https://thirty-thousand.org/the-house-of-representatives-is-scalable/ Please read that.
