MEMORANDUM

Posted: July 25, 2019 09:56 AM
From: Representative Cris Dush
To: All House members
Subject: Delegate Resolution
 
I am re-introducing an application to Congress that provides guidelines to and controls over delegates for behavior at the Article V convention. These guidelines are meant to ensure the legislature’s sovereign will is protected against any risk of delegates misbehavior and any attempts to create 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. We, the Executive Branch, our municipal governments, our businesses and constituents have all felt the onerous pressure from federal overreach. 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 this resolution.

Formerly HR 11
