Maintain the Senate as a smaller body of longer-serving staggered-term congresscritters apportioned to each state as a whole according to their relative populations, as opposed to the shorter-serving simultanously elected representatives who come from individual districts within states. Obviously the Senate will need to be expanded for this to occur, but considering that we're already one of the least-representative legislatures in the modern world, I won't shed too many tears.
Otherwise, we wouldn't have states with legal marijuana or the choice to be right-to-work.
The latter is minor, the former is of dubious legality even within our current system.
