ABOUT US
Citizens concerned for the future of their country, under a federal government that's increasingly bloated, corrupt, reckless and invasive, have a constitutional option. We can call a Convention of States to return the country to its original vision of a limited federal government that is of, by and for the people.

Washington, D.C. will never voluntarily relinquish power. Article V of the Constitution offers the single best remedy for the crisis our nation is facing. The most important thing you can do to be a part of the solution is to tell your elected state legislators your position.

Dear [State Legislator],
As a resident of your district, I urge you to take action to restore meaningful constitutional limits on the federal government.
Article V of the U.S. Constitution gives state legislatures the power to act as a final check on the abuse of power in Washington, D.C. Under Article V, state legislatures have authority to hold a limited convention that can propose much-needed amendments to our Constitution. Once 34 states pass a resolution applying for such a convention, Congress must call one.
I support the approach adopted by the Convention of States Project and I want to see our state become one of the necessary 34 states to pass their model application.
A copy of the Convention of States model resolution is available by clicking here.
A copy of the Convention of States handbook, which briefly describes the Article V process and the Convention of States Project strategy, is available here.
Please support the Convention of States Project and consider sponsoring the resolution in our state.
Thank you for your time and your service to the people of our district.
Respectfully,
[Your Name]

"We wired it": How collusion altered Clinton's first Benghazi hearing

Posted by Convention of States Project · September 07, 2016 7:57 AM
The latest batch of emails from Hillary Clinton’s account prove once again that collusion within the federal government is out of control.
One email in particular reveals that Clinton’s aides coordinated with Democratic Sen. Robert Menendez to lob Clinton softballs during her first Benghazi hearing.
“We wired it” Clinton media gatekeeper Philippe Reines wrote to Chelsea Clinton the morning of the hearings. They wanted Clinton to be able to talk about her whereabouts the day of the attack and discuss U.S. Ambassador Chris Stevens who died in the attack. Sen. Menendez’s first questions allowed Clinton to do just that.
How can the American people hold their federal officials accountable in this environment? How can justice be served when the people’s representatives are so willing to stage an investigation to protect their own? The simple answer is, it’s impossible. As long as our “leaders” in D.C. can act with impunity, they will continue to collude among themselves, impede justice, and shirk accountability.
An Article V Convention of States can restore the federalist structure our Founders envision, giving the states and the people a real means of holding our federal officials accountable for their actions. A Convention of States can propose constitutional amendments that give the states -- and thus, the people -- a real voice in D.C. Washington cannot hold itself accountable, but if the states call a Convention of States, it won’t have to.
