Application For A Convention Of The States Under Article V Of The Constitution Of The United States.

This bill aimed to request a convention of states as allowed by Article V of the U.S. Constitution. The purpose of such a convention would be to propose amendments to the Constitution. However, the bill ultimately did not pass in the legislature.

Supporters of the bill would argue that calling for a convention of states is a necessary step to address critical issues facing the nation. They believe that it empowers citizens and state legislatures to propose amendments that can limit federal government overreach and restore constitutional rights.

Critics of the bill would contend that a convention of states poses significant risks, as it could lead to unpredictable changes in the Constitution. They might argue that it could open the door to radical amendments that could undermine fundamental rights and protections.
