Congress has an incredibly low approval rating. I can't imagine we could do much to make it worse.. why not try experimenting in order to make it better?
Congress has a low approval rating because people mkstly disapprove of the choices made by people electing the 532 members that they don't get to vote. Individual members in their own district (for the House) or state (for the Senate) tend to have very good approval ratings.
The one way you could make Congress worse is to make it so that people didn't get the members they want in the elections they do vote in because their choices are even more restricted than they are now, while still hating the choices everyone else makes.
Term limits for Congress would be one way of achieving that.
