Long time since any progress on this.

The Commisioners will be some of the LA State Legislators buddies, and some friends with state contracts. They will ensure that the NGOs, and extras are fully funded with taxpayer dollars.

Bunch of damned hogwash.

This resolution (and other similar resolutions already passed in several other states) means a runaway convention is impossible.

I wouldn't count on that. I mean our government was setup to mitigate the elements of corruption and look where we are at now?

It's not so much as qualifying who should go to the Article V convention. It's all about limiting the Article V convention to pre-approved topics.

Until I see that, it will always be a boondoggle for me. I will always see the first, second, fourth and Fifth amendments being changed to the public's detriment and jeopardizing our freedoms.

The Article V convention started out on the issue of amending the 17th amendment. Vis-a-vis how Senators are chosen. Why can't it be limited to the 17th amendment and issues therein?

I just noticed this in COS email. Great news and doing my happy dance.

I also got an email from Ted Cruz this week. He is supporting an Article V Convention also. Ted gets a lot of negative press. He has a pretty prickly personality and does not meet presidential qualifications but I believe he is on our side in most issues.
