You can indeed (I had to check with the manufacturer when I first started taking them.) The issue is that the absorption is unaffected by cutting them in half (which is good), but the active ingredient may not be quite evenly dispersed within the tablet. i.e one half may contain 55% of the active ingredient and the other half 45%.

But if you're having the other half on the second day running, over 2 days your are receiving the correct dosage. (For most people, the active ingredient not being evenly dispersed throughout the tablet is not an issue).

What would it take to cut the number of members in the US Congress in half?

To cut the number of senators by half the US would have to lose half its states, becoming only 25 states instead of the current 50.To cut the number of representatives by half the US population would have to drop by 50% by the next census. Sounds like a lot of deaths to me.These rules are defined in the original constitution, the only way to change the rules and reduce either or both houses without the dramatic changes to the country mentioned above would require a constitutional amendment.
