The Senate, the country’s most powerful legislative chamber, grants the same representation to Wyoming’s 579,315 residents as it does to 39,536,653 Californians.

For a very good reason. It was done to keep a few large states from ramming their policies down the throats of all the other states.

It is also incorrect that the Senate is the most powerful body. And if the progessives had not altered the Constitution (17th amendment) the Senate would be a whole lot less what it is like now. The goal of the 17th amendment was to steal power from the states and federalize it. The same reason they want to abolish the electoral college. The wet dreams of progressives.

The House of Representatives was supposed to be the most powerful legislative body.
