Subject: | Article V Application and Accompanying Delegate Resolution |
I am introducing an application to Congress for a single-subject Article V convention. The subject of this convention will be one amendment to the United States Constitution that will give state legislatures the authority to repeal, or countermand, any act of the President, Congress, the Supreme Court, and any regulation decision by a Federal Government agency when thirty state legislatures vote to repeal. In addition to the application to Congress, I am introducing an additional resolution that provides guidelines to delegates for behavior at the convention. These guidelines are meant to prevent any risk of a “runaway convention.” I believe the founding fathers gave us the Article V convention for the purpose of reining in an out-of-control Federal government. It is time we use this powerful tool to build a better future for our Commonwealth and for our nation. Therefore, I would appreciate your support and consideration of the attached resolutions.
