This is untrue. We could simply add more Senators by admitting more states into the Union. Kinda like we did with Alaska and Hawaii.
Millions of citizens in DC are without Senatorial representation not to mention Puerto Rico, Costa Rica, Guam or many other "protectorates".
It can be done without dissolution of the US. It requires a simple majority vote in the Senate and House and Presidential approval.
